Think: - A build once deploy to WP7, Win8 and Xbox Live dev to attract developers. - Skydrive integration across all windows apps - seamless Skype+Facebook+IM messaging etc.

With how aggravating games for windows live is, I don't have much faith in a well integrated system either.

Given how well integrated Windows Phone and Xbox Live are already, I've got plenty of faith in good integration going forward.
