I'm with 2 on the disabling. I don't want IM popups during gameplay.

My other problem with this is that Microsoft seems to want to replace the friends list on XBL with the Messenger buddy list. That's fine in itself, because the two really are quite similar, but the problem is that I think Microsoft will leave it at that. The friends list in XBL is one of the most lacking features on the system. No grouping or tagging, limited to 100 users (reported to go up to 700 with the new system), and has no social networking features that would really make it a lot better. I just think Microsoft is going to a completely wrong direction here.
