Unhappy Entourage X / Outlook Express

Is there any way at all of getting hold of Entourage X as a seperate thing to Office/Word etc etc?
I can't possibly afford Office v.X etc at the moment, but am so totally used to Microsoft's e-mail app style etc, and feel comfortable with it.....

Failing that, does anyone have any idea when or if Microsoft are going to Carbonise Outlook Express?

Please help me!

My guess...

... would be that Outlook Express won't appear for OS X, as Apple already delivers a nice small mail-client with Mail. Pity, but that's the way I see it.

Entourage was never sold alone before, but they might make a package containing Word & Entourage, as they did before.

For the time being, try Mail - it has a lot of nice features.

I've used Mail since I got OS X, but am now sick of just how aweful it is, that I've switched to the Beta of Eudora, which isn't ideal...
I soooo need Outlook Express.. or Entourage X (if they do the bundle with Word + Entourage again, I may consider shelling out for it, cos I don't need Exel/Powerpoint etc)

Actually, they DO sell it alone as I found out today while picking up my copy of the 10.1 updater CD.. there it was on the shelf.. stand alone copy of Entourage: 2001

Of course, that doesn't answer the question of if they'll make another stand-alone of X.
