While this is not directly Exchange product related, I wanted to point you in the general direction of several awesome Office 12 / Outlook 12 resources. While we are busy working on Exchange 12, the Office team is busy working on Office 12, which is aiming to really change how we look at Office applications! As someone that does not turn off Outlook ever, I am very excited about it all taking shape.
Here are some places where you can learn more:
The official Microsoft Office 12 web site.

If you saw the web site above and are wondering how come there are so many Office User interface (UI) changes – then you might want to check this out too. Jensen also lists some additional awesome Outlook blogs some of which are listed below.
