New PIE

Anyone looking into pulling the new PIE out of the new WM 6.1 emulator images that were just released as well as getting the Messenger files out of it? I miss having actual Live Messenger after getting the most current Live for Mobile version.

what do you mean windows messanger.. ? you can download the newest version from microsoft at all times.
the pie sucks and is not anything to want.
the only difference it has is java 7.5 support in desktop mode. Its slow. and microsoft is gay about it and says a phone like the diamond and touch pro isnt good enough for this browser. so **** it. use opera mobile 8.65 opera mini or skyfire over ie.
IE is old and gay. untill PIE7 or PIE 6.5 comes out .. theres no need for it.

Doesn't work in Miri's ROM either. Same problem.
I haven't tried yet, but I think we can get it free from:
http://pocketexpress.com/

i dont get what you guys are talking about....its a simple cab install file. Its specifically for windows mobile 6.1. If theres different versions for the windows mobile older versions install cab then go to the www.pocketexpress.com to check which versions they have. the cab i listed is the newest version.

I think the one posted is not for the ppc as only 1.9mb, according the site the ppc one is 8.6mb. This works fine. Here

The European version is not available for Win Mobile - at least not yet. The US version does work, but it only has American information. Also, the installation program attempts to install .NET 2.0. If you have a later version of .NET installed on your device then it will not install version 2. But the prog runs fine anyway.

i mean the sports tab can give you every european futball club information you need with another tab to follow your favorite teams...plus the news tab/ticker shows world headline news so...its pretty neutral when it comes down to it...it isnt only american information.

Anyone having a problem with PE and the TP2 where the text on the scoreboard is slightly too big so it all looks jumbled?

Microsoft Office Mobile 2010 Reaches Beta. Any words of CAB download?

I'm looking forward to testing the new Office Mobile 2010. If anyone knows where I can find cab (or exe) to download I will appreciate.

You can download it from the marketplace, or you can visit these posts for a .cab.

Below is a link to the marketplace where you can get it.
http://marketplace.windowsphone.com...rch.aspx?keywords=Office Mobile&wa=wsignin1.0

If you're serious about running business-quality software on your PDA, try Softmaker Office instead. It's what mobile documents should be. Even the MS desktop version has very, very little over the mobile version of Softmaker. And the desktop version of Softmaker is every bit as good as MS Office in all respects. And for about $80 you get a license for both the desktop and PPC versions.

Thanks to All. I could have checked Marketplace before asking. Sorry about that.
I couldn't imagine the Beta would be available there for download.
Thank to all of you guys.

Microsoft Office Mobile 2010 beta1 "cab" version
Microsoft Office Mobile 2010 beta1 "cab" version is here. http://www.4shared.com/file/155188223/4f65c24d/Office_2010.html
zip "pass" : ctrlpda

Nice
I will try it later

Thanks, I couldn't find it.

For some reason it doesn't appear in My Market Place on my Xperia X1. I am running Windows Mobile 6.5
I went to the Market Place website on the PC and "bought" it there. Still doesn't appear on Mobile.
Downloaded the cab file from link and installed ^^ thanks.

Are you in the States?
I have the same problem - it isn't listed in Marketplace, but I am in Canada. I am running an old HTC S620 with a 3VO 6.5 cooked ROM (which runs great and indentifies itself as a 6.5 device)
I have heard that it is only available in the States currently. I am now running the Office 2010 Beta on my desktop (and love it - was using 2003 PRO)

Yes, I second this - Soft Maker has been indispensable for mobile document processing. Its worth every penny you plan to spend!

Microsoft Office Mobile 2010?

It's available on the Marketplace. Just do a search on the word "office" and it finds it. (Did for me anyway!)

does it worth it the 2010 Office? Is there big improvements?

As far as I've read on other sites, no. People are slating it for being exactly the same as previous versions. You'd be better checking the microsoft site to see what improvements (if any) are in there.

i've got it installed and it is pretty much the same as the old version, though i'd say scrolling through excel files is easier now but it all still looks the same, apart from the new icons. The only new addition is SharePoint workspace which i haven't really used

ok thanks, i think i will wait for the 2011... or the upgrade of windows m7...

OneNote Mobile was supposed to have been improved in Office Mobile 2010, but the Beta is exactly the same as the 2007 version. Maybe the improvements will appear in the final version.

Does anyone know if 2010 will allow you to edit powerpoint documents? I'd find that really useful.

I have installed the Office Mobile 2010 but when I restart my phone, it crash the services.exe so no choice but to revert back to the old Office Mobile.
Anyone got the same problem also?

I dont normally look at marketplace, I thought it would only download to main memory. I want to put it on storage card.

As far as I understand that's exactly what it does, although apparently when your main memory is full you can choose whether to remove old apps or install to storage card. Why you can't choose in the first place is beyond me.

That's "What's new" according to MS:
http://www.microsoft.com/Office/2010/en/mobile/default.aspx
As I see it the major inovations are Sharepoint, Outlook and copy/paste across apps.

Office 2010 is practically the same thing as far as I can see. On a mobile phone the main thing that office should do best is document viewing on the go. its not too good for that and unfortunately the iphone is better for viewing. The furthest zoom isn't far enough. The zoom levels are quite far apart and it's not fast or fluid. After that, it should have a function to edit a document. Quite a weak effort imho.

It has threaded view of all emails (not just Exchange) ... similar to sms feature ...
http://www.wmexperts.com/latest-version-outlook-features-threaded-email-messages

I think most of the main updates are around email and will only work with Exchange 2010.

Yes - I tested this and it worked quite well... You select the relevant text box and then you can edit the text in a simple text editor window... It also worked very well on a fairly complex PPTX file (9MB) with lots of text animations.

Windows Mobile 6.5 Update Help

So I updated my Dash 3g to Windows Mobile 6.5 from the T Mobile WM Upgrade and I really am not satisfied. I do not see anything new except for this Microsoft junk that I do not use, so who can give me a list of what is new in WM6.5 and what themes/ new updates(6.5.3?) are better than this one?

I agree with you.. The Rom for T-Mobile.com is a garage. i am looking to the previous one I downloaded for this website. For anyone, please aviod downloading T-Mobile's official 6.5 verison.(it's 6.1 with additional programs like MSN Weather and MSN Money)....the only thing it has is "Visual Voicemail". I didn't try but hopefully someone can explain how it works and is it worth it.

It amazes me how anyone with an internet connection can be oblivious:
1. WM 6.5 for Standard (non touch) does not offer a UI (user interface) update. This has been known for, well about a year and a half. So yeah, it looks just like WM 6.1
2. The 'new programs' you mentioned (MSN Weather and MSN Money) are called widgets, basically internet apps wrapped up all nice and neat into a small package for you. Those pre-installed are merely there to show you the possibilities of widgets. You can find and install new widgets on the internet.
3. Visual voice mail is transcribed mail, voicemail you can hear, download, share, read. Think a 'dumber' version of Google Voice.
4. Most of WM 6.5 improvements are 'under the hood' meaning they are there but you just dont see them.
And last but not least. Stock ROMS suck.. period. But that does not change what WM 6.5 for Standard devices is.. it in reality it should have been called WM 6.2 but we dont get to name the updates do we

1.It still sucks...I would recommend no one to download the new software from T-Mobile
2. I still do not care for these new internet apps called "widgets".
3. I don't have Google Voice but Visual Voicemail sounds gay and nothing important.
And LAST, I regret downloading this ROM and should have research other comments or opinion on the ROM. I am going back to the previous STOCK ROMS from this site.
