Thread: xperia x1 question regarding MESSENGER..

Okay, I'm almost 100% sure I want an Xperia X1, I'm currently torn between this and the HTC touch pro..
I prefer the Xperia as looks nicer, doesn't look as bulky,
I like the look of the panels and stuff BUT.. The thing that
is stopping me and making me doubt it, (which may seem small)
but is the use of IM software (MSN, AIM, Yahoo) as
I always use MSN and that's what I mostly use my phone for, if not texting.
I've tried to find a good review on the messenger on the Xperia, I was just wondering if anyone
could tell me how good it is, on here I've seen people experiencing a lot of problems?


And if you wouldn't mind looking, here's a video of the HTC Touch Pro's MSN client..
is it as good as, or anywhere near as good as this;

YouTube - Sprint HTC Touch Pro Windows Live Messenger


If someone could help me out here I'd really appreciate it, I'm so confusedd!

Xperia has Windows Live Messenger, HTC Touch Pro has the same (shown on the youtube video) and it looks exactly the same. I haven't had any problems with the Messenger; it's very easy to set up, connects well and is rather fast.

I don't know what the another instant messaging application is on the HTC, we don't get that in Xperia. But if you want to use AIM and Yahoo in addition to MSN, try Fring.

Anything that is in the Touch Pro, we can steal and put on our phones... If that other IM program was any good, we'd have it by now.

yea... x1 runs exactly the same as the HTC... i guess u shld jus google it no matter what... cheers

FWIW, I prefer Agile Messenger, though it's payware.

I installed Fring on my Xperia, but however much I try, it just refuses to work through GPRS ... it keeps searching for a wifi connection.

Anyone has any ideas as to why???

Thanks!
