[access-uk] email on the NC10

A quick bit of reading on the net suggests that the email software that
comes installed on the NC10 is from the Windows Live suite.
Is this right? Is there no Outlook Express? And< if so, does jaws work well
with the windows live software now?
Thanks

Thanks to all for their patience -
