Windows Live Messenger Beta NOT Public

The confusion probably started after a red colored "Windows Live Messenger" text link appeared on MSN UK's homepage by the end of last week.

It links to a product page still showing screenshots of older Beta-versions and claiming that "the new Windows Live Messenger Beta is <...> as always <...> free to download".

Indeed, it is free to download but you still have to sign up for the trial first (don't worry if your country's not listed) and wait a couple of days before you get invited.

Admittedly, if a beta version is being used already by about one million users the definition of "public" is contestable. But let's just conclude that there's still NO instantly available direct download link for just anybody.

Windows 7 beta download imminent?

Microsoft have updated their Windows 7 site with a download link for the Windows 7 beta. It would appear from the posting that Microsoft is currently readying site updates and download servers for the imminent release of the Windows 7 beta. Yesterday, German site Winfuture claimed that the beta would be released today and this could confirm the sites claims. The download link is currently inaccessible. It's entirely possible that once the page is live it will simply be a sign up page to register your interest. Microsoft will not comment on the exact date and a Microsoft official confirmed the beta is still targetted for early 2009.

Microsoft makes Office 2007 Beta Paying

A Microsoft spokeswoman today announced that the company will make the beta of its next Office version paying, as soon as Wednesday, 6PM. The download cost will be 1,50$, and will affect the public Beta 2 version. While beta 2 will be covered by this policy from now on, the recently announced Beta 2 Technical Release should remain free, along with the Test Drive.

"Since the end of May, Beta 2 has been downloaded more than 3 million times...That's 500 percent more than what was expected," the spokeswoman said. "The fee helps offset the cost of downloading from the servers."


"This is the first time Microsoft has charged for an Office beta, and it's not something that is planned for on a repeat basis," the spokeswoman said.
