They have actually rolled out major changes recently. Try this in setup:

1. First, you put in your email address and password, then you hit "manual setup" (not "next"), then choose "Exchange". From there, you'll see the following...
2. Domain\Username: Clear out and put in your full hotmail address
3. Password: if not pre-filled, obviously put in your hotmail password
4. Server: m.hotmail.com
5. Check "Use Secure Connection (SSL)"

that should do it if you are running Froyo
