So is Office 2011 Lion compatible now or not? I mean will all the apps work as they do in Snow Leopard in Lion now October 22, 2011?

1. Outlook WILL crash if you empty trash that has more than a couple hundred messages in it.
2. There's no way to disable the infantile (and nonsensical) blocking of E-mail message content in Outlook.
3. Outlook refuses to show you WHO sent you a message (their real E-mail address): http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5013/5390654657_1981672123_b.jpg
4. Office's contacts are supposed to sync with the Mac OS Address Book (if you activate this feature), but don't. Two things happen: A. Outlook somehow corrupts your Address Book database, which makes it appear as though all of your contacts have been deleted. B. Outlook's contacts get out of sync with Address Book, and there's no way to trigger a resync.
So when will Office be able to do full screen mode in Lion?
