Windows Live Messenger for iPhone previewed
Neowin.net has posted screen shots of the upcoming Windows Live Messenger for iPhone. According to Neowin's sources, Windows Live Messenger for iPhone will officially be previewed by Microsoft later today, but will not ship its public beta until June, with a limited private beta expected in May.
Features gleaned from the screen shots include photo sharing, chat and a social stream for users.
Of course, MSN Messenger has been supported on the iPhone since the unveiling of the app store via thrid party apps. Some of the popular ones include Nimbuzz (free), IM+ ($9.99), and Trillian ($4.99).
Stay tuned for the official announcement later today and click on over to Neowin to see all the screen shots.

I am not tied to the company in any way, but I am LOVING it. it can connect to almost any service you can think of, it handles multiple points of presence (MPOP, logging in from multiple locations at once) pretty well, it's all web-based so you don't have to install a client and can access it from anywhere, and the iPhone app is beautiful and simple. Honestly, I'm just a really happy customer.

Tobias from Nimbuzz here. Thanks for the mention!
We are always curious on how to improve our app, especially because besides IM we also do the full voice for free as well, for MSN, Skype, Google Talk, Yahoo, AIM, etc.
Feel free to connect with us http://usa.blog.nimbuzz.com
Meebo is the best and free.

There's also Palringo, but I don't actually use MSN Messenger. I do love seeing MS bow to the power of the iPhone though. Bing app, MSN Messenger app, but you'll never see Apple make a Windows 7 Phone app. Why? Because there's no market there, compared to the iPhone. Even MS can see that the iPhone is going places the Win7Phone can't and won't. I love it.
