Stopped recieving data

Device Brand:htc (AT&T)

Device Model:Tilt

Windows Mobile Version:6

Windows Mobile Edition:Professional

MSN Direct Version:0.1.56560.0

MSN Direct Device #:9131788520857212127

MSN Direct Config #:-512959345

I downloaded MSN Direct about 2 weeks ago or so and it was working well. Two days ago it stopped receiving updates. I had not tried doing it through Active Sync until this morning and that did not work either. I have clicked on the Refresh Data. It is not roaming (although I did try enabling it).

It appears that most of the pages for Mobile on your site are inactive as well. Has support and use for Mobile devices been pulled? Or do I just have a problems with my phone?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

What types of feeds would you like to see?

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 15:40:55 Z

Be as general or descriptive as you like with your responses. Do you want to see more news related feeds? How about comedy? Social networking site feeds? Hobby related feeds? Feel free to list feeds that you already subscribe to.

Example: I really enjoy online comics, and one of my favorites is Penny Arcade. Unfortunately they don't have a working mobile feed (they used to), but I would like to see some comic feeds available on my phone.

The MessageInterceptor Class

Hello,
I want to know, how the MessageInterceptor - Api runs in C#? I used the first example on the page:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb932385.aspx.

I don't know how to modify the code to get the program started.

I would be thankful for your answers...

Add cities to weather data?

Sat, 14 Jun 2008 01:50:41 Z

I live in fairly large city but it's not listed under the cities option in the MSN direct weather options page. The Weather Channel does provide accurate weather for my city. What do I need to edit to add my city?

Thanks

Ability to tie existing MSN Direct account to MSN Direct for Windows Mobile?

Wed, 28 May 2008 21:36:39 Z

Since the feedback page on the MSN Direct page for Windows Mobile currently points to en error:

https://feedback.msn.com/default.aspx?productkey=msndirect&mkt=en-us

Sorry, the page you requested is not available.

I thought I'd bring up a feature that I'd like to see implemented here. I was an early-adopter of the MSN Smart Watches (SPOT) and have had an MSN Direct account for a good number of years. I just downloaded the MSN® Direct for Windows Mobile® Technology Preview and one major thing that I would like to see is the ability to sync my settings from my MSN Direct account to my mobile phone.

Anyone using CellSpin?

Wed, 14 May 2008 09:02:38 Z

I have been playing around with MSN Direct for a bit now and wanted everyone to join my clog. I'm amazed to see what CellSpin does with MSN Direct. For those of you who do not know what a clog is, a clog is an amazing social community feature where people with similar interests can share information with each other. For instance I post my music, videos, images, and messages to facebook, myspace, livejournal, flickr, blogger, msn livespaces, and many other popular websites. If you use this free and easy to use software, come join the MSN Direct Clog. I know there has to be a couple of you since they support well over 300+ phones world wide.
