It's very good, but very beta.

hello all,
..i'm confused, why all the fuss ? as with other programs and/or software, if one doesn't like one particular program one buys a 'better' one. happened with me and the built in calender. i opted to buy a better third party one. same as with the old msn messenger. rather than using that, i chose to use the FREE agile messenger so i could chat on aim, msn AND yahoo. can't say i've ever used the actual pocket msn messenger. i never use any features apart from actual chatting, so agile suits me very well. i don't see that changing with the introduction of the orange messenger.

The fuss is that MSN is a worldwide system anyone can use, regardless of network carrier and spanning from PC's and mobile devices.

The worry here is that the networks are actively removing PMSN and replacing it with this proprietary version, potentially with a different charging system, and thus removing the choice element. Personally i prefer PMSN to Agile. Current handsets from O and T don't allow me the choice of which to use...

Slight correction, the Vario II is shipped with Pocket MSN as are all other T-Mobile UK Windows Mobile devices with WM5 AKU2. Only the MDA Pro (HTC Universal) on release lacked it and the latest rom reintroduced it. So T-Mobile DO still allow the choice (although I understand other providers like Vodafone are removing it...)

Ah i stand corrected! Either way, my point still stands. I wouldn't be surprised if all operators swtiched to a proprietary mobile messenger system...

Certainly seems to be heading that way. The good news is O2 and T-Mobile in the UK currently buck the trend by shipping all WM5 AKU2 devices with Pocket MSN.

Goodness knows why T-Mobile briefly removed it from MDA Pro only to reinstate it. Can't believe they could be reacting to customer feedback... tongue.gif
