WebDAV is actually good now (whereas before iDisk pretty much sucked). It's
just as fast as SMB mounted Windows shares.

IE scrolls faster, which is nice.

Text smoothing in Office X is very cool.

Don't know about Mail though - I don't use it. I might again after Jaguar
though.

It'll be interesting to see what that book is all about. I'm comfortable
with Unix, but not a pro.  I have the Unix in a Nutshell book (actually, the
whole bookshelf CD thing - 5 nutshell books on  a cd is pretty cool) and I
like that.
