The download has now been posted. Got this mail from Microsoft:

"The Mobile 10.7 Beta is here !
Welcome to the Mobile 10.7 Beta. We are proud to announce the unveiling of the "G2" Client. We ask you install and use the Client, fill-out the surveys and get ready for the Beta Chat (Announcement TBD). Surf to the Downloads page, and start downloading the Client.
Thanks for your participation, and bring it on - We want to hear all you can bring !
Sincerely,
The Windows Live Beta team" |
Initial thoughts, I have only installed it and I may be uninstalling it soon. And here is why:
- Before install I had 3.5MB of storage and now I only have 1.75MB or maybe less. 
- Seems like the app installer doesn't prompt for install location - device/storage card.
More later...for now it looks like a memory hog and performance hog.

Uninstalled it!
This Beta is not for me. It has the same problems as the Pocket MSN. Plus adds new problems for me.
On the plus side it looks fancy. And it even downloads the contacts from your MSN account.
