I am a big fan of OneNote and I am a big fan of Outlook, so naturally I want these tools to work better together. Currently its possible to build an Outlook Task, Appointment and Contact from triggered by a key sequence in OneNote but thats about it.
The curious thing is that Outlook actually has a notes section which hasn’t really seen any significant feature improvements since it was first introduced. So why can’t we just get OneNote embedded in Outlook? This is what I imagine it could look like.
The question is - with a new version of Office in the pipeline, what kind of enhancements can we expect with Outlook? One thing that I would like to see is the ability to add nodes to the folder list hierarchy and customise the main view (Inspector?) and preview pane for displaying certain types of information.
For example, it would be great if the preview pane could display InfoPath forms so that you could really embed a workflow solution into Outlook.
