I was surfing the other day and was reading the MSN site, I check the messenger and it has a messenger for pocket PC, but they sell it, my question is, this paid sw is the same as the one loaded in the WM5, does it have different features? I contact MSN support group, and as normal...I post it here to know the answer, because the useless support of course do not even understand the question...SAY WHAT???

I too noticed you could get Pocket MSN for like $30, but then I'm looking through my software on the Axim x51v and I see theres Pocket MSN in there, I open it up and it runs fine - I too was wondering if they were the same?

If you were going to pay for software then you could get IM+ for Pocket PC from www.shapeservices.com (or Handango) that has Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, AOL and one other I don't recognize all in one package! I have it and it works great! I can launch all my IM's at the same time. :approve:

The Japanese version of WM5 doesn't seem to have Pocket MSN built-in, or at least not activated. It might be the same for some non-English OS's, in which case, it is a bit of a kick in the pants

They sell PocketMSN. MSN Messenger for PocketPC is free.

Microsoft has an update here but only for 2002 and 2003, not WM5

Pocket MSN comes with PPC's that run WM 5.0. I don't know about the international versions, but the US versions have it already, and you do not have to pay to use it.

If you want PocketMSN for WM2002/3/3SE, then you have to purchase it from them.

Agile messenger works just as well for free. I believe I can log onto all those at the same time also.
