Windows Live Messenger App available for iPhone

With the iPhone 4 shipping this week there is a great new app in the Apple App Store – Windows Live Messenger and now with push notifications.

The Messenger iPhone app is free and includes many of the same rich Messenger features that you’d experience on a PC. With the app, users can:

• Instant Message with multiple friends, allowing users to view chat history, use emoticons, send a ‘nudge’ to a friend who isn’t responding, and share links and photos via Instant Message
• The app also includes push notification of new chats, so users can see when they receive a new IM when they’re not already interacting with the app
• Access their Hotmail account without leaving the app to read, reply to, and compose emails
• Receive email notifications within the application so users know when they have new messages
• View the updates your Messenger friends are sharing from social networks like Facebook, Flickr, MySpace and more
• Upload photos right from your phone, allowing you to create albums, add captions, and let your friends and family comment on your photos

The URL for the download from iTunes on your PC is: http://itunes.com/apps/windowslivemessenger

Users can download from their iPhone by searching for "Windows Live Messenger" in the App Store
