Google Wave Invites
How does one go about getting these.
-- and yes, I'd like to get in on that if there's something anyone can do to hook me up.

Invites are VERY limited right now (still stress-testing) - something like 10 per acct. Because of that, according to a friend, it's really not even all that useful as beta - the utility of the device is wrapped up in it being the easiest way to reach/organize/etc. a large group of people, but that group doesn't exist yet.
So I wouldn't be too anxious yet.

If they force you to have an account name apart from your gmail account, I'm more interested in not having a yournameu81248124@domain.com sort of account name rather than interacting with anyone just yet.

I don't know whether they will or not, but I'm under the impression that it integrates Gmail, Google Docs, Reader, GChat, etc into a single platform, which would seem to mean you'll use the Gmail address for everything?

That's the part I've got beef with. My business email is just my name@mycompany. I like to keep separate biz and personal accounts, and I like having my domain name as part of my email...helps with branding, I think.

I do the same, but you can get gmail to check and send from a POP client, but I like Outlook a lot for business contacts because I'm always sending .pdf files (I'm trying to get the whole office to use a lot less paper because it's such a major expense). I also think, at least for lawyers, having a gmail, yahoo, rocketmail, aol account is slightly unprofessional. Add to that the fact that I could make an argument that there is no attorney/client privilege for many of those accounts since they are indexed and searched by the companies which store them, so the communications are not private... And that concludes this stream of consciousness.
