Nice UI, but no new header here either! :( I'm confused about where the timeline and storyboard are, though...

I just want a consistent UI the same as the new Windows Live Messenger, as promised. I know this isn't the final version, but it really doesn't look like we'll get that :( :( :(

The UI is pretty inconsistent with other Windows Live stuff. I love the Ribbon, but this is a pretty poor implementation of it, even for a beta. I wonder if it'll also have the similar Office features like Live Previews before applying changes, highlight and contextual mini-toolbar pops up, etc. It'd be great.

I want more stunning visual effects and graphics (to rival Apple and Adobe's superb collection), more fonts, color manipulation, "real" HD, online sound effects library, etc. I doubt if Microsoft can reach that high, but it never hurts to try.

So it will actually be better than the preloaded Movie Maker? If so..then great...curently, I'm experiencing a bug that freezes the program on the first attempt at publishing any video, so I have to close, re-open, re-load the project, and it publishes only then. It becomes a hassle since I use it every day. I hope the "Live" version will "refresh" my current configuration because I have no idea what program I installed or thing is causing this.

Now just to start offering "money back" to OEMs that ship with it (even if it isn't the "default" program used).

And somehow convince those on the non-Live versions to move on up.

What about Onecare? IS that also part of Wave 3?

Nice. I'm liking the ribbon--ahem, I mean, "Fluent" UI or whatever.
