There are some nice updates happening for Fring right now. If you don’t know what Fring is, you don’t know what you are missing.

fring is a mobile internet service & community that enables you to access & interact with your social networks on-the-go, make free calls and live chat with all your fring, Skype, MSN Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ, SIP, Twitter, Yahoo! and AIM friends using your handset’s internet connection.

So, Gil over at Fring brings word of some nice changes for Window Mobile….

Firstly, we’re delighted to announce that in response to the ongoing development we’ve been doing to fring for Windows Mobile, our friends at Microsoft have recognized fring and awarded us their “Designed for Windows Mobile” certification. We’re delighted by this as it acknowledges and demonstrates the commitment we’ve shown to the WM platform.

Secondly, we’ve just released a major new version of fring for Windows Mobile devices, including Sony Ericsson’s new super cool Xperia.

Updates in this version include the new & improved fring Add-ons – fun, interactive mobile internet apps that sit inside fring, allowing you to take your Facebook account mobile, receive Gmail notifications and loads more.

Plus, we’ve included our popular File Transfer function allowing users to send digital files over IP to all their fring, Skype, MSN & Yahoo buddies at the click of a button (no need for Bluetooth pairing, no wires, no infrared and no costly MMS charges!) Just select a buddy, click send, and before you can say “Who’s seen my data cable?” the file has been received.

In addition, fring for WM now has a fresh new look and feel, with navigation & functionality improvements including a new ‘Go- To menu’, Privacy and ‘Joystick-In’ settings, typing indication and new Add-Ons Management screen, all making for an even smoother fringing experience.

Finally, for HTC users, we now support earpiece use, as well, so you can keep your conversations all to yourselves.
