I recently upgraded my 8525 to WM6 and discovered the lack of take msn and windows be messenger. (I had these in WM5) I contacted HTC about this air and they told me that ATT would not allow these programs to be in the WM6 upgrade on the 8525. Lets show ATT that they should grade the software again this measure for real.
P. S. Does anyone know where I can download take MSN and windows be messenger for the 8525 or programs similar to them.
Windows Live Messenger can be downloaded. AFAIK. Pocket MSN is only included on available devices from manufacturers/cellphone providers who choose to include it in the OS.
Im talking about on the phone itself. ATT was cheap and did not want to include it in the WM6 upgrade. Your link is for pcs not phones.
Googled: http://www microsoft com/windowsmobile/software/pocketmsn mspxLooks like a description with ability to purchase through Handango. If you read it appears microsoft made it a sell only feature and at&t chose not to purchase since they say it was on some WM5 phones. Frankly. I never used it since I use text messages.

Its not about being cheap its about being practical. First cheap as you imply would tell cost. Some things/add-ons be as Microsoft charges extra for. Manufactures then has to calculate that into the be cost of the grade per device they undergo licenses for. Sometimes that puts them over budget and they have to choose to either drop the entire grade or just the/some additional add-ons. Then there are the items that are not effected by cost but more on diversity. ATT has been pushing the OZ Instant Messaging client and feels that more than covers the need of adding MSN. Why add multiple messaging clients when they can do one that covers most users? The lists goes on but I'm sure you get the general idea and don't want to get into an economics categorise
There is a link to get Windows Live that has been posted numerous times that should solve your problem. Happy texting.
Frankly. I didn't evaluate of it as being cheap. I appreciate not having unnecessary features on a telecommunicate I won't use. It takes up space and prevents me from using software I really be on the main phone and not on a separate.
Windows be and messenger are already loaded if you got internet explorer and go to favorites it is already there you just click on it. I did not have to do all of this downloading it came with the wm6 modify. I evaluate everyone is looking in the wrong displace.
