I say we call the Microsoft PR division and ask them questions about 
what they are gonna do with those other browsers.  I looked around on 
the Microsoft site, and found this under the consumer group PR Contacts:

MSN, MSN Services (Hotmail, MSN eShop, MSN Internet Access, MSN 
Messenger Service, MSN Chat, MSN Web Communities, MSN Calendar, MSN 
Mobile, MSN Search, MSN Web Companion), and Passport:
Waggener Edstrom (Bellevue) at 425-637-9097

That looks like the person we would need to talk to.
