it would be nice if the texts fro liveprofiles gets merged with the build in conversation

I don't think we'll have contact integration just yet although it is something that we may look into in the future.

About the previews, my apologies but I still don't have permission to show these around. There's a few things left that need fine tuning.

All I can say at the moment is that it's going well and the app looks exactly like the other platforms (or better!).

Any other questions please ask. I will keep in touch.

i'm not fussed on integration, i think a seperate app is better. looking forward to seeing the released beta!

I think integration would be nice but for the moment, i too would be satisfied with just a launch. Seems as though it's getting close though.

Hi,
@deleet, why should I use Liveprofile over Skype, gtalk or msn? why ppl compare it with BBM? maybe it has its own PIN server? (don't think so jusk asking)
this sounds like the previous must have app whatsapp :S

I'm also wondering about this esp. re Skype. If I wanted to use a closed protocol binary blob, isn't Skype way better established already?

Re: LiveProfile (more than a BBM clone)
 
I understand that there are other chat protocols available on modern smartphones, plenty of them.

However, I believe you're not looking at the whole picture, we are different in many ways such as:
  • available on mobile phones only
  • our interface looks a lot better and is easier to use
  • social components bring a real close-friend network to your phone
  • message delivery receipts (sent/delivered/read)
  • posting of status messages onto Facebook and Twitter
  • much more...

This is really just the beginning of a 20 page list, but I'm only allowed to reveal the first paragraph :(

main advance its that its the only really multiplatform push chat system

whatsapp doesnt work on ipods, and only old nokia phones ignoring linux variants

and its get group chat its will be one of the few options n900 to get group chat besides pidgin :/

i hope our version n9/n900/symbian 3

gets group chat like others,

i hope they are using qtquick so it runs on all 3 nokia platforms and soon s40.

its performance its good enough it should turn decofactor messenger of mobiles :P .
