Windows Live for Smartphone Released

<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://mobile.search.live.com/about/default.aspx' target='_blank'>http://mobile.search.live.com/about/default.aspx</a><br /><br /></div>In the "oops we missed this one" department, Windows Live for Standard (Smartphone for us normal folk) has been released. It looks like it will also work on Professional (Pocket PC, in case you are confused) devices as well. With faster searches and I'm sure, access to the wonders of the world, how can you pass this up? They will even text message the link to your device in case you are afraid to enter it yourself. I won't even try it, but I wonder if Mobile MSN Live Messenger still wreaks havoc with your exchange contacts. In the past it would add everyone on your messenger list to your contacts on your device, which of course would end up on your exchange server, if you were using one. Naturally they gave you no way to opt out of this disaster. If anyone tries it, let us know.

Yep...works great. I've been using this for several weeks on my Blackjack. I thought you guys had talked about this before.

:lol: All these Live applications are confusing the heck out of me. Yeah, that was the beta announcement. It's finally been released as V1.

Yes, whoever is the head of the "naming" department at Microsoft needs to find a new job! :D

He did, he is now in charge of Professional Standards. :lol:

Guys this is called "Live Search." Live Search is different from Windows Live. :lol: Give Microsoft a break. :)

[Jerry Raia]

So then does Live Search work on Standard and Professional? Do Professionals have standards? Does Windows Live include Standard Live Search?

Who's on first? :P
