Windows Live Updated For Windows Mobile Devices
Posted by Matt Hickey at 11:00 AM on July 23, 2008
Not content to just offer a new version of Windows Live Messenger for a competing platform, Microsoft today released an updated official version of the full Windows Live app for Windows Mobile that features contacts syncing, support for Live Spaces, Live Maps, and push email from Hotmail, MSN, or Live accounts. It's a free mobile download, though you'll have to make sure you nuke the old version first lest you mess up your device. [Download, via JK On The Run]

I already have a version that was preloaded on my Mogul with Messenger included. Is this the same version for phones that didn't come with the software or is this an upgrade with more features?

Only slightly on topic
I've been looking at a lot of different mobile devices lately. Anyone know of a good forum to ask questions and get information about Windows Mobile and software and such?

HEADSUP! If you currently use Microsoft Messenger the new Live install will trash it.

@Ryan H:
For enthusiast ROM and other mods, the forums at [www.xda-developers.com] can't be beat.
More general user, but well-informed Mobile articles, try

Is my second home on the net. Good people, just be sure to use the search button! The search actually works really well if you get the scope correct (search this forum/thread/etc).
Also once you are no longer a noob there, remember not to feed the noobs, they need to learn to use the search button too!

What's the point if this version doesn't have IM?!? The contacts update service is pretty useless by itself...

You gotta register to download the file tho, but if you want/need that file you would probably want an account on xda-developers anyway...
