This is a great story - which I also saw in the Irish Times - about how a group of enthusiasts flew a model plane across the Atlantic from Newfoundland to Clifden in Co Galway. The plane was launched using standard remote control equipment. However, once out of range of the controller, it flew on autopilot, using satellite navigation. It landed safely less than half a mile from where Alcock & Browne landed after their first successful transatlatic flight in 1919. [BBC News | Technology | UK Edition]

Yet, that's right, Outlook Express is now an orphan. While it won't discontinue the product, the Redmond Behemoth has confirmed it will cease further development of the world's most popular e-mail client. Apparently the suits see it as a consumer product and they want to focus consumer efforts on MSN and Hotmail. The hope is that business users will fork out for a licence to the full blown Outlook product.
