I received this e-mail from Microsoft today:

Hello!
We'd like you to be among the first to try a new beta version of Messenger.
If you use MSN® Messenger now, we think you're really going to enjoy Windows LiveTM Messenger. It's as fun and reliable as the Messenger you already know, and you won't lose your contact list or any other personal information when you try this new version.
Some of the new stuff it will let you do:
* Use Windows Live call to sign-up for MCI Web Calling to get incredibly low rates on calls to phones across the country or around the world
* Drop documents into special folders that you and your contact can access even when one of you is off-line

Please keep in mind that since this is a beta, some features are still in progress. And that we need your feedback if there's anything that doesn't seem to working right, or that you would like to see done differently.
And in case you were wondering about the new name, Windows Live Messenger is part of a new family of services from Microsoft® that includes Windows Live Mail (now a simpler, safer, faster mail), and Live.com (a new personalized homepage experience), to name just a few.
Thanks, and we hope to hear from you soon.

Am I that loved or...?
I didn't apply as betatester, and, as far as I know, I didn't receive an invite or got invited.
Does anyone know more about this?
