Their signup page has changed so many times I'm worried because I signed up when it was first available and it's almost a completely different form now.
Should I sign up again?

It's always been like that, just hit continue and it'll take you to the sign up page.
ok, GUYZ calm down....
you should all recieve an email telling you ur invited, but u need to type in an "code" that is txt messaged to you to complete the process. so make sure u give the right phone number. and also the "beta code" is for the people that have attended the confrence, and they apperantly have a priorty for the beta program. and if you want you can sign up again. i certainly would. and no i still have not recived any more information.
i have also heard from another person that they started sending out sms's....
and the "beta code" is for people that have attended the confrence and went to their booth.

I'm keeping a close eye out. I signed up to recieve an sms 12 days ago.
So do we know for sure if they have started sending out text messages to people? I know their website changed thursday night, but they haven't updated their blog or anything.

Ugghh
I got the text message with the confirmation link. Clicked on it, but my phone wouldn't connect to the internet, so I soft reset. The text was gone after the phone came back on! I'm so annoyed. Anyone know how to recover a lost text message?
I signed up after i read about it on engadget. I actually installed it. Must say it does load desktop views fast as hell. Reminds me of the iphone where you have to zoom in. to a certain part of the page. It actully plays youtube videos in the webpage much like your desktop. i had to download it like 20 times to get it to open up. Man its fast. I thnk its fast becasue it doesnt load the entier page. you have to zoom in holly cow...
Yo, guys. Do i really need to give them my phone number to install Skyfire, or just my email? I want to try it on my PDA running Classic version, not a phone. Since now they started giving out the copies, how long would it take to recieve Skyfire. Any suggestions?

Its not supported, you have to have a phone number...
Works as advertised
Just saw I had a text message and was up and running in about two minutes on my 8525. It's fast and youtube worked natively. Going to keep testing, but looks like it will soon be my default browser.
can you tell me when you applied for the beta?..that would be a help.
Guys and gals, I've just published a review of the current version of SkyFire. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393693

ok i have wm6 i got it here like 3 mounths ago. i dont know what kind it is. but i need a new one. my calls arnt comming in and my e-mail is not working too well. i want something that is stabel, nice, and one thing that is a must is have the phone contacts thing. on mine there is a bar on the top when you opent the phone where your contacts are. thanks
There are already tons of "what should I use" threads - read them and then experiment. No one can tell you what you should use.
well i know. but i dont know of any that have the phone contacts on it. do you know what i am talking about? i will send a pic if needed
please someone. it is very annoying. my friend called me 10 times today (yes i am positive i have service) and i did not get it or get a reminder
Try doing a hard reset (Clear Storage) after backing up your contacts etc and see if it resolves the issue. I'm not going to suggest a rom since you should do your own research.
ok i think i got one. now for the contacts bar, is there something to get that. i will upload a pic in a sec. but i am going with the xm6r3

Huh? Leaked? Skyfire sent out emails Tuesday saying they opened the beta for anyone to download without waiting for an invitation.
Skyfire was released to the public, try reading their website sometime.
Is there any ppc software out there that can do this?
I would love to use this for texting and emails?
plenty

There are services as well
Jott was the best known, but is now a pay service. You can get the voice to email/text message functionality from Dial2Do. I use it often when driving.

Im looking for "speech to text" not "text to speech"

Ive been looking all day and have not found one bit of software for windows moblie to can convert my speech to text for use in sms or email.

Thanks for the links...I'm also looking for SPEECH to text (not the reverse) solutions for WM...specifically like vlingo for Blackberry. Doesn't seem to be anything that competes with vlingo...anyone know of one?
Well I could not find one
so have put my email here http://www.vlingo.com/vlingo/vv_unsupported.jsp
for the vlingo version when its comes out
the more people to sign up the better
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that this Speech to Text conversion doesn't take place on the device, but rather the voice data is sent to a web server that decodes it and send back the text?
Is this true?

Yes. All the options till this date use a server for it as the database would be too big to be housed inside a smartphone.

Ive signed up tooooooooooooooo!!!!!!! Vlingo do something......hard to type sms on my omnia while driving!!!!!
I signed up too. Currently using Voice Command, but need this next step.
I this not the company that make the software you posted a video of http://www.nuance.com/nvc/ guess you could send them an email and get a trial.
Also the last post links to a cab that seems to do what but it is a 3 day trial

Vlingo
I too used Vlingo with my Blackberry during the painful months that I had to use the Curve. It is the only thing that I miss about that device, and I too have been looking for this software. Vlingo was very smooth, and it processed everything on the device itself. Telus offers a Voice Command service, but even their proprietary version takes much longer to convert than Vlingo did.
Hey everyone.
Does the "feature" where the sms one pressed is selected after all the other sms's are loaded, suddenly interrupting the writing, ever bother you guys?
I wonder if it's possible, as per the image below, "move out" the reply button from the menu list as a shortcut.
My programming skills lack here but I'd gladly make a reply icon if any of you geniuses would be able to do this.

no its going to the message thread and you have to press on that box where you can type text before you can start with ur reply.. wich costs a tremendous ammount of time. *sarcastic mode*
I dont get the idea of fix behidn this?? Isnt that just moving the reply shortcut, it would still open the same messaging window loading all the messages still...?

Remember you have to take the version of your language ROM. [the .dll of that topic is for ENG version].
Very good idea I think I don't want in that hole conversation mode. It is slow and it takes time.

I don't really follow what you're talking about.
I am using the latest Messaging.
Let me try to explain again.
When one presses the actual message, the conversation mode comes up and the sms's start loading. As soon as all the sms's finish loading, the message you had pressed becomes highlighted.
If you are writing meanwhile the messages are loading, as soon as the messages finish loading you won't see what you're writing anymore.
I've tried Artemis v14 and it was the same there.
I don't think there is a ROM that doesn't have this "feature", but if there is, please enlighten me.
If it's still unclear I could try to make a video, but I am sure that the latest HTC Messaging does not solve this, since I am using the latest one.
This is why I want the reply button out there. When pressing the reply button, no sms will be highlighted and you can write your text easily.
It is not a matter of being lazy, as I saw someone else mention earlier, but if you encounter this I don't know, maybe 20-30 times a day I ensure you it will get to your nerves!
Let me repeat myself, the thing bugging me is not that it doesn't go directly to the reply box, but that when the text you just pressed becomes highlighted, you don't see what you write anymore!
I have a similar problem.
When replying to a SMS, the messaging client loades all SMS you have in your contact box [and lagged the client] and when it finished, the keyboard comes over the typing SMS. So you can't see what you were writing.
But I merely remember a ROM |WinMo 6.5] where the messages are in the same mail client, just like on WinMo 6.1 [where mail and SMS where in the same messaging client].

Yes the NRG rom is like that for example. But I don't like the look if it. I'd rather have this solution that I'm trying to make happen!

Yeah, I don't like its design, but it works better, quicker and without lags.
It can be really usefull
Now that Qik is working on the market the following is useless.
I know some people can't get Qik to work, or even see it in the market so this is what you need to get Qik with video chat going on your phone.
1 - Download the APK from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6710910&postcount=9
2 - open the apk up with astro or whatever you want
3 - hit 'upgrade' and follow the steps
4 - power off your phone and pull the battery then put it back in and power up(not 100% required but it's better safe then sorry).
5 - open up blue Qik(should be the only one) and enjoy!
thanks dude, worked like a champ!!
and then, wait until you get qik to send you the authorization text so you can actually use the proggie..
still waiting for mine..
Yeah, I never get the verification txt...I've even had it resend...so lame...
