Office 365 Light

The light version of the Office 365 web interface provides fewer features and is generally recommended for those who need optimization for accessibility. A list of features can be found here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/ilvancri/archive/2010/04/07/exchange-2010-owa-versus-owa-light.aspx .
