Install all Live Essentials together?

I currently use a few Wave 2 apps - Mail, Messenger, Photo Gallery and
Writer. Is it possible to upgrade any of these to Wave 3 without upgrading
the others? For example, I don't want to upgrade Live Mail form v12.x right now but I would
try, say, Photo Gallery and Writer. Is this possible or is it all or none?

That's what I suspected. :-(

I'm currently being periodically nagged in my system tray to upgrade
Messenger but I think I'll hold off for now.

It is true. The question was can you upgrade only one component of Windows
Live Essentials?
The answer is to avoid problems, upgrade all or none.
