Microsoft’s just launched their mobile version of their Live site, allowing Pocket PC and WM5 users to access Mail, Spaces, Local, Live beta, MSN beta, and Weather directly from their pocketIE or Opera Mobile browsers.
The site has been redesigned for mobile devices - slimmed down the width and reduced the amount of images - so it’s easier to use. This Microsoft Live initiative is actually turning out to be pretty interesting. It shows that if Microsoft really wants to do something, they can pull out a full featured Internet App suite in less than a year. Mobile Live [Live Pocket PC Thoughts

Why in God’s name can’t they make these services available for the UK? The Live Local website on my computer recognises the name of my major city (albeit only when I enter “Manchester, UK”) but the mobile version comes up with a long list of Manchesters in the bloody States! It’s the same data, so why not just open it up to the world from day one? You’d be amazed how many nice sites we miss out on here…

Think yourself lucky that you have worked out how to get Manchester UK results at all at all. I am now in New Jersey but hail from Sherborne in Dorset . To get local live on my desktop to depict Sherborne UK is like pulling teeth out of chickens and a google search for Sherborne real estate produces loads of results for Sherborn (sic, very sick) Massachusets,.But then yanks never spell correctly after all!!!
