Jason had <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=44465">posted</a> on these services before, but at the time, they weren't ready for public use. Regardless of whether you signed up for the beta or not, it's now live (no pun intended) and available for public testing. Continue on for a few preview images. <!><br /><br /><b>Windows Live Mail:</b> <i>"Windows Live Mail beta for your mobile devices is a fast, clean, and simple e-mail service for your mobile device. The basic idea: it shouldn't be such a hassle to do mobile e-mailing. You should be able to see the interface clearly and use it easily. Your address book should be available at your fingertips and you should be able to manage your inbox effortlessly."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20051203-Live02.gif" /><br /><br /><b>Windows Live Search:</b> <i>"Windows Live Search beta for mobile devices lets you use your Web-enabled mobile device to search the Web for almost anything you're looking for, just like on a PC. Search results are formatted to fit on your phone's itty-bitty screen, so you can actually read them easily (a crazy idea, we know). With Local Search, you can find stuff in a specific location (Chinese restaurants in New York, for instance), and see maps with driving directions and phone numbers you can call with a single click. By the way, you need to have your own Web-enabled wireless device to use this service (you knew that, but our lawyers made us add it anyway)."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20051203-Live03.gif" /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20051203-Live04.gif" /><br /><br />To access Windows Live Mail and Windows Live Search, simply point your mobile browser to <a href="http://mobile.msn.com/pocketpc">http://mobile.msn.com/pocketpc</a> and click on the relevant links.
