The new Live Messenger capable phone from Philips is a great idea in concept. It’s a standard DECT wireless phone that makes normal land line calls but can also, via a PC, make calls to your Live Messenger buddies.
Having decided to go for the Philips VOIP433 I did only a small amount of ‘windows’ shopping [...]

I’m sure I’m not the only one who had a survey from ‘MSN Research’ on some thoughts around a slightly revised interface and advertising model for Windows Live Mail.
The email read as follows:

The ability to view what a friend is currently listening to, with permission?
The ability to view a friend’s playlist, with permission?
