I agree. This is a disappointing decision. The sole Google site that I am really using is gmail. I have some interest in Calendar and Docs - but there are other options that I feel are comparable or better (Zoho and Airset). As for Picasa - I really do not see much value to it.
I was actually pleasantly surprised with Microsoft's decision - it is not much but it is better than what they have done in the past. However, my preference is for either Xdrive or Box.net
