It seems the MSN Messenger 7.5 BETA is going public as posted by mess.be.

But it seems like Microsoft is planning a worldwide public BETA for 7.5 dubbed MSN Messenger Technical Preview and mainly focused on the Vodafone integration.

"MSN Messenger Technical Preview is a pre-release version of the MSN Messenger client that will be offered in the near future. We are giving our customers the chance to take a sneak peek at the new and exciting functionality of being able to have Messenger conversations with users on Vodafone mobiles. Please note, you are using the MSN Messenger Technical preview at your own risk."

Download links are not functional yet (a matter of hours or days?) but here are some links to official BETA homepages: United Kingdom, Belgium, The Netherlands, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, etc.

All the links 404 at the moment :(

I'm checking the Connect newsgroups for more info


RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by BeerBro on 08-11-2005 at 02:14 AM

so msg plus! is not 100% compatible with 7.5?


RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by Patchou on 08-11-2005 at 02:35 AM

The current public version of Messenger Plus! is already 95% compatible with Messenger 7.5 so there's no need for anybody to worry :).

Wrong.

First of all, we (here on this forum) already knew about it before mess.be posted it, see: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=48...d=508297#pid508297

And all the other sites had the beta sites up an running when the italilen download link worked. But now it's only the italien beta site that works

and then everyone else who doesnt know about private betas etc, will get it and you can use all the features properly without cross version compatability.

For that matter it seems to be a case of finding a leaked copy for most of us.
RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by L. Coyote on 08-11-2005 at 10:11 AM

I'm waiting for an official release (disappointment).

I remember waiting a lot for 7.0, and the release disappointed me. :( I already lost my liking for MSNM.

As with everything, nothing is concrete until Microsoft announce it themselves. When you can download the beta public, it's public. There's simply no other way to determine if a rumour is true or not. I don't like rumours and I wish you people would stop helping them spread.


RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by jesusloving on 08-12-2005 at 03:56 PM

all bate version has some bug , i have to say

agreed, why people are so intent on getting unfinished/testing programs im not sure.;.. maybe its just to say "oh i have the MSN beta" and waffle on

RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by Lt.Col.DraGon on 08-12-2005 at 04:20 PM

Does anybody know if this public BETA will have the voice clip feature? i would like to use it with my friends all the time.


RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by NeoRevan on 08-12-2005 at 05:45 PM

I had to revert to 7.0 because 7.5 crashed every time I got disconnected :p

I believe it will...but I can't access the newsgroups because of soem stupid error so I can't guarantee anything, nor can I deny anything...but if its the same build as we have already, yes.
RE: 7.5 BETA going public. by EvilSeph on 08-12-2005 at 06:00 PM

lou_habs, if you want to stay a beta tester, I suggest you not disclose any information regarding to the MSN Mesesnger beta program. New features, changes, scenarios the testers use, whether the final will have the feauture or not etc.
