Windows Live Messenger Beta for Windows Mobile

Found this on pocketinfo.nl
http://www.pocketinfo.nl/artikel/6153
It's a clip demonstrating the upcoming Windows Live Messenger for Windows Mobile.

Anyone know if it can be downloaded, and where from?
I have seen some screenshots of this before on msmobiles.com but the guy that posts articles is a bit of a jerk, so I tend not to post there unless I feel like a rant.

im also looking for this to download too, looks very impressive

've used beta 10.7 live mobile, it's really cool... but makes the device a little slower. Still, a great step ahead!
You can get it on hofo (if you search a little) or in gsmhosting

Tempting!, can anyone post a link on this thread?

The only one I can find is a smartphone version. It won't install on my Wizard.

In fact the demo shows a smartphone version of it. Maybe we can expect something from the same source ?

yup, i'm using it on my tornado, no ppc version leaked that i know of

The PC beta made huge demands on the graphics card and slowed my reasonably spec'd tecra to an almost halt.

On the PC version, you can turn off the extra animation and shadow effects, it's these that would have strained your laptop.
It's not relevant to the Windows Mobile version though, completely different interface.

Hi. did I find the msn here http: // www.uploading.com/es/? Get=AJTUM3RT. But the problem is in that it does not work in windows mobile 2003 :s I cannot make it work in my ipaq h6315. Does some solution exist?[/i][/b][/u]

It won't install on WM5 Pocket PC's as it is designed for WM5 Smartphone's. If you did run the installer, you see a message saying the Pocket PC version is "Coming in the near future"
edit: link without the spaces http://www.uploading.com/es/?get=AJTUM3RT

lets hope that windows live is released for wm2003se too, atleast wm2003se deserves windows live if not wmp10

any updates ?
any updates ? other then http://mobile.live.com

Supposedly the PPC beta will be available in the next week or so...

best ppc internet browser

I know thunderhawk may be the best as far as viewing webpages, is there anything else that comes close?

Menneisyys wrote about browsers it seems

Picsel browser is the best I've used. NetFront is meant to be great I hear.
V

Minimo (firefox mobile beta)

On a QVGA device, without frames and copy/paste support, maybe. Otherwise, particularly if you have a VGA device, go for something else; for example, Opera Mobile or, to a lesser degree, the PIE + new (!) PIEPlus 2.2 combo OR NetFront 3.4 TP.
Please see my previous articles & comparisons of all these browsers so that you'll see what their particular strengths / weaknesses are and how they compare; these articles can all be found here in the forum.

pieplus works good for me. minimo is more than my device likes to handle (plus bad bookmark support).

Yup, Minimo runs pretty slow on some models / ROM versions.

Minimo is very slow to load but once it has, it is fine on my orbit overclocked of course. I like to use tabs so it is handy. Loads more features than PIE.

For me, the best browser is the almost new Opera Mobile 8.65. It got new options to download images and to import IE Favorites, among other new things, and it's very fast.

Could you please post a link to the Opera 8.65 for pocket PC.
I have checked their site and the latest version yet available for download is 8.60 which I am already using and it provides no way to import the Internet explorer favourite links. So I guess 8.65 may be a beta version. A link for download would be most helpful, though I could see the version 8.65 for the Symbian S60 which will obviously not work for us the PPC users.
Thanks and Regards

Here is the link, with the new features. But it's true that when you try to download, the version is 8.60u2 (?).
http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/products/winmobileppc/index2.dml
I attached some captures with the versión page, the "Save Image" option and the "Import IE Favorites" option.

Yeah, it's the old 8.60u2 only, last modded last December.
Where did you acquire your beta from? Is there a public link / source anywhere?

I got it from a blog pointing to the page that I posted before and to a download link. But the download link is dead. So I guess that it may it be a pre-release version. Another thing, It doesn't asks for a registration code. It's very strange.
It runs very well (except the flash support that doesn't runs or I don't know how to make it runs). Even the "old" trick to translate cache and other files to the SD card runs well...
I got the CAB in my Desktop so, if someone wants to try, it I will upload it.

According to the linked page, it relies on the external Macromedia / Adobe Flash 7.0 plug-in.

Of course I'd be REALLY interested in getting it

Here it is
*an URL was here*
Menneisyys' comment: sorry, as a moderator, I'm also responsible (to some extent) for what files the XDA-Dev forum (or, at least, the threads I contribute to and, therefore, am bound to know the contents of) contains. This is why I've removed the link after speaking to the Opera folks: the file turned out to be a pre-release betatest version, in no way to be distributed. That is, someone from the betatest team has leaked the pre-production, NDA'd test version - at least this is what I think the case is.
Thanks again for the URL and the effort you've provided me the file (it's really appreciated); sorry, again, for my having to remove the link.
Could you please also remove the file from RapidUpload as well? (If it takes too much effort, then, don't do it. Just don't spread the URL.)

Thanks!
BTW, in the meantimne, I've edited my post

May be, Opera usually allows 30 days of trial... But the prior version allows to enter a registration code and this one, not.

I've it installed for PIE since a lot of time. I've reinstalled it but no results... I've looking in the Opera.ini but I found nothing.
By the way, there is a question about this version posted in Opera forums:
http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=180783
No answers... for now.
Regards.

There's an answer there now:
For the record, Opera Mobile 8.65 for WM is still not released. And this page should not be public. :smile:
When the release is here, this will of course be announced. At least now you know what to look foward to. :wink:

DeepFish! (New microsoft browser for WM5+ devices!)

Has anyone tried it yet?
http://labs.live.com/Deepfish/whatis.aspx

I saw this posted elsewhere and tried to sign up, but they have already stopped new applications
Would love to try it on my Wizard though. Opera is fine for me on the Universal, but anything less than VGA would benefit from something like this.

Deepfish
Well here is the .cab install file but it needs an activation ID.
Can anyone help?

With the D-Pad and centre button.
And thanks for posting

My activation ID is different so I wonder if they're tracking these?
Oh, and doesn't posting this break the rules????

@Griffy wiffy Thanks for posting the cab-file and the code
So far Deepfish works smnooth and offers a nice idea on browsing the internet on a ppc but in its early development stage it's not useful for daily purpose, but shouldn't take long until we have a good alternative for surfing the web

I guess that the posted cab is for pocket PC? Any chance anyone is willing to post the smartphone version?

"As a technology preview, Deepfish is early in its development cycle (still a few releases from beta quality). As a result some features are not implemented or are only partially implemented. Currently, the technology preview does not support ActiveX controls, AJAX, cookies, Javascript, and HTTP POST."
PUKE... I don't get how its worth browsing with???? no cookies??? no java??? I think i'll wait till final release

this is very nice idea, it is useful right now, it looks a lot like I already saw on some Nokia phones, E series. I'm wandering why is not freely available for download, is money the only thing that drives M$ !?

Does anyone know if this works on WM6. I've tried installing this and it says its successful but there is no new program installed nor any shortcut icons>
Any ideas

seem the activation code was blocked

It won't and I don't think WM2003(SE) support will ever be released. The platform is being ntirely phased out; for exmaple, NetFront 3.4 and Minimo 0.2 don't support it either.

great find thank you

I can't believe it
I can't believe only one person has said thank you for finding this. Opera Mini is sweet and fast (although Opera Mobile in Desktop mode is the only browser that I have been able to log in to my banks site chase.com and it has tabs ). Thank you very much really appreciate it.

I remember being confused with the CAB choices. What's the difference between options 'with and without selection dialog?'
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1740111&postcount=17

Menneisyys posted his thread in the General section too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347689
The selection dialog will kick in whenever you click a link to open a browser, so you can choose between PIE or Opera Mini. For more information see post #6 at the link I posted.

nevermind, didn't realize this thread is ancient...

Sorry, said my thanks to Shlomki already (the dude who tied up the different mortscripts into cab files). I think this is an awesome package indeed - Opera Mini truly rocks!
