Why no "Me" app ?

Anyone else think this is a glaring omission? - unless I am missing something and it's there ...

I agree, although with the extra screen real estate I don't mind going to notifications in the people hub.

At first, I wondered the same thing. But I'm starting to realize that WP7 (and thus WP8) and Surface RT are completely different operating systems. I originally thought Surface RT would be like a tablet version of WP8, but it has become apparent that it's really just a slightly watered down Windows 8.

They took some elements from Windows Phone 7 for Windows 8, but many of the smartphone features are missing (Tellme, for instance). It looks like they just consolidated the "Me" hub into the People hub for the sake of simplicity, though I definitely preferred them separated.

I kindna like that "ME" tile is part of people hub. Not need additional tile for it.

I have thousands of people imported from Facebook and twitter and my phone so I think its probably cause of that but still doesn't seem to slow down my Windows phone!
