I can't switch to outlook.com because of this
Warning: You might not want to change this email address if you've used it to set up a Windows Phone. On your phone, features that use this address will stop working, including Marketplace, Xbox LIVE, SkyDrive, email, and others. To use these features again on your phone, you'd need to restore it to factory settings, which erases all personal content.
***be extra caution if you have others account associated with your hotmail.com
No. You can move on to Outlook.com without having to rename your email address. That way, you get to keep your original Hotmail address and enjoy the new interface. The statement only applies to people who wish to rename their email addresses entirely, like mine, renaming from xxx@hotmail.com to yyy@outlook.com. Yea I had to do a factory reset and download all apps again, but it looks more professional bearing a outlook.com.
In case you or anyone else wishes to rename, do so when it come times to upgrade. It's just a 5 minutes process.
To enjoy the new Outlook interface, all you need to do is logon to your Hotmail, change url to outlook.com. Bam, you'd be using outlook interface.
