Are you a Windows Live for Windows Mobile 5 Beta tester?

If so, then you'll be pleased to hear that an updated version of the (already great!) application has been posted on http://connect.microsoft.com.

The new version adds a whole bunch of fixes and improvements, as well as removing the 30th March timebomb in the previous version. Due to NDA reasons I can't post the changelog here i'm afraid.

Here's hoping this points to a full release for the application... it's a big win for the Windows Mobile platform.

Well, i've already gone through the pain of merging my Live contacts into Exchange, so I don't have a problem ;)

It's worth the effort IMHO!

I thought I had - but I still ended up with dupes and when I delete the dupe - they disappear completely from messenger!

The new contact that has the buddy icon is the 'right' one from your messenger account. Don't delete that one.

It means a lot of copying and pasting of phone numbers and addresses. Its really only the display pics that you might lose when deleting the outlook contact.

They'd better get a move on or the new Yahoo Go for wm will be out before theirs! ;)

I am gutted! One of the main reasons I went with the SPV M3100 was because of MSN and it being built in, then when I found out it was missing I almost sent it back. I then found the thread which installs msn via a backdoor bodge using the 2002 version, then an upgrade, but it doesn't really work properly. When I found the "live" messenger I was well happy, then bl00dy april 1st arrives and it won't work. Is there any way to get on the beta list, it's really winding me up that I have no msn?

Any suggestions welcome. TIA

Sigh, just been through this horrible process. I deleted most of the WLM contacts and updated the IM address in my existing contacts, seems to be ok so far...
