No "Live Drive" at CES

Mary Jo Foley was able to dig up some more details about what we can expect from Windows Live during CES and absent from the list was Live Drive.  Which I had thought might be related to this ad. A spokesperson told Mary Jo that...

"There won't be any Live Drive meetings.They (the Live team) are already making major investments in roaming scenarios with their services, as well as search and sharing scenarios across PCs and devices with things like Sharing Folders in Windows Live Messenger and folder sharing and sync with our acquisition of FolderShare. They'll continue to invest in services that enable anywhere, anytime access and Live Drive is the codename for a project in this space. But they have no other details at this point."

Brandon has some additional insight

The "all together now" ad now seems all but confirmed to be in reference to "Windows Home Server".

Some other Windows Live services that we might see at CES are the new Windows Live for TV (formerly Nemo, now called Orbit) which is now taking beta signups.
