That is all I know at this time, but I’ll get more information tomorrow afternoon (PT) and I will update this post as needed. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Edit: As has been pointed out by some community members, the official press release does say the ‘week of May 7th’ for a release time. So we’re well within that so far. It sounds like some folks missed that part, so that’s why I wanted to post this update.

I would like to say sorry if i'm not suppose to provide links.

Here is the list of info:

- Your Windows Live Messenger contacts will know which games you are playing, as well as your gamertag.
- You'll see your Friends status, whether they are playing a game on Online on Windows Live Messenger.
Xbox Live Marketplace:

- The XBL Marketplace blade can have its own skin, independent of the dashboard's theme.
- The XBL Marketplace blade will change looks depending on such events such a season, a holiday, etc.
Achievements:

Although I don't have an xbox, so I wouldn't know.
