Behold, Windows Live FolderShare Technical Support hath spoken! <w>
<QP>
....I understand that you are concerned that your access to the Windows Live
FolderShare be interrupted once Windows Live Sync has been released. I am
here to address this.
Robear, you are correct that Windows Live Sync will now be incorporated with
Windows Live ID. Since you are a current non-Live ID user, you will be
prompted to register your account to enable it for the Live ID services. Be
assured that your access to the Windows Live FolderShare or Sync will not be
interrupted once it goes live.
The information above will help address your inquiry and I appreciate this
opportunity of providing you assistance.
