Window's Live Messenger?

Chris_From_Devon · 11/07/2009, 01:27 PM

Hi there,

I am thinking about purchasing the Pre and ive read what seems countless reviews and it looks amazing, just what I am after. However I noticed on a review which I watched on Youtube, that on the IM function of the phone there isnt the option to use Live Messenger?
This in a sense is trivial but in other quite important, I would much rather have Live on the pre than any of the others mentioned like the google chat.

Is there any way to install/download Live onto the pre?

Feedback would be very appreciated.

Ah; are you from the UK too?

I had a feeling there would be work developing it. Do you have a Pre I take it?

I'm wondering if Palm knows how important MSN is in Europe. Not supporting MSN (or Live Messenger) is like not supporting instant messaging at all. Hopefully they'll add it officially soon.

Yes I have the Pre. That link to the plug in is only for US firmware.

Great; thank you all for the feedback. Very useful.

If you wait until we get 1.3.x I'll test the msn app and let you know? Should be only a week or so now, but its all speculation.

Yeah man, that sounds fantastic. Im planning on buying my Palm this comming thursday; the countdown begins (:
Let me know asap, I am very eager to get msn running on this.

I doubt we'll have 1.3.1 by thurday, but should it turn up it will be the first thing I do.

Pm me your msn if you like
