chris20 · 09-09-2006, 14:32

you can get msn messenger on 3 and its free till October http://www.three.co.uk/lifestyle/msn.omp

There are other 'unofficial' ways to get msn, regardless of network. I've used a piece of software called mig33, it's ok. You can get it by pointing your phones' browser to wap.mig33.com. You need to register a free mig33 account but once that's been done you can add your msn details. However, the official msn client on 3 is very nice...

chris20 · 09-09-2006, 15:08

the msn on 3 i think would be better you can add contacts block them see the smile faces on the other one it would be basic

Kargo · 09-09-2006, 15:12

and how much roughly will it cost?

chris20 · 09-09-2006, 15:14

what one the msn or mig33 one

chris20 · 09-09-2006, 15:14

what one 3 or mig33

Kargo · 09-09-2006, 15:36

mig33

im on T-Mobile Pay as You Go

chris20 · 09-09-2006, 15:38

here are the details of mig http://www.mig33.com/

T-Mobile PAYG internet is charged at £7.50 per Mb. IMHO, this is quite expensive.

However, they do offer a PAYG Web 'n' Walk day pass for (fairly) unlimited usage for £1 per day.

I really couldn't beging to guess how much data each message would work out at. Download it, try it for a short time and see how much credit is used!

chris20 · 09-09-2006, 17:48

these are the only phones that web and walk work on Nokia 6131 and the Motorola V3 Black or Pink.

When I go onto MSN on my phone, I use a service called eBuddy. You can get onto this by going to http://wap.ebuddy.com on your phone's browser. (You can also go to http://mob.ebuddy.com which is a colour version of the service - you need a compatible phone for this one and I don't think it's as reliable).

There is no subscription required and you can just sign in with your Username and Password straight away and talk to your contacts.

You can find more information on their mobile service here: http://www.ebuddy.com/mobile.php

Hope this helps.

I have an orange SPV phone which has MSN on it automatically.. highly recommended

gazdudeuk · 10-09-2006, 00:06

ebuddy.com

BoBaDoB · 11-09-2006, 08:22

on orange you can goto chat in the wap services and log on from there also, and that website is accessable from any other network also. and also try mobile.msn.com i believe for the phone version

Deanparkr · 11-09-2006, 12:20

Ive used mobile.msn.com in the past and Ive just tried out mig33. I found that although mig33 was prettier it transferred ALOT more data than the phones in built WAP browser....

Press the Triangle button (or Planet 3 shortcut), at the top of the page choose 'Go To Internet' and scroll down to see the link for MSN. Download the software from there.

gazdudeuk · 09-10-2006, 20:21

10-10-2006, 17:10

I'm on T-Mobile pay as you go and I just go onto wap like normal, go onto the normal msn wap site and go onto MSN from there, The other day I was on for about an hour sent loads of messages and only got charged about 60p

{ph[oe]nix} · 10-10-2006, 19:23

What you want for MSN messenger is QuickIMPRO. Which you can get here: http://www.getjar.com/products/1915/...sMSNCompatible

Your phone needs to support Java (J2ME MIDP 2.0).
