Is the Windows Live Messenger beta reliable?
Is it reliable? I know that once I install it I can't go back to the old one unless I do a hard reset. Will it slow down my ppc? Does it put junks in my ppc? After it syncs with my msn contacts with the contacts on my device, can I remove the msn contacts without disturbing my messenger contact list?

It synced my MSN contacts and in doing so somehow killed my contacts database. For some reason after it did that Activesync would no longer be able to connect in order to sync, I had to move the pim.vol then soft reset to get activesync to connect.

I didn't like it very much. I didn't keep it very long at all.

Now that I've said that, with the way things have been going lately, I am sure to have it go buggy on me!

I use msn quite often. I guess I'll give it a try.

So far so good. It supports display pictures and default msn emoticons. Soft keyboard doesn't automatically pop up unless you ask it to, which is good for wireless keyboard users. But I didn't like how it added all my msn contacts to my device contacts, and the fact that I can't send messages to my friends' mobile devices like the PC msn messenger. I hope the full version can improve on those.
