MyPhone from Microsoft is now live (for some) – syncs info between phone and the web

It looks like the Microsoft MyPhone service is slowly starting to open the gates and allow for more users to enroll in their beta. Phil Nickinson over at WMExperts was able to get in and sync up his 499 text messages. Unfortunately I still get the “please take a number….don’t call us we’ll call you” when I try to access the site. You may however want to try from your area of the world and see if you have better luck getting in. MyPhone is Microsoft’s way of storing all your Windows Mobile phone data to a protected site. This means pictures, text messages, contacts, tasks, videos, documents – etc. Of course there are other services like Dashwire that do this but since you’re dealing with Microsoft here – expect that somehow they may figure a way to embed MyPhone firmly into your WM phone OS in the future. Isn’t this a lot like BlackBerry Enterprise Server which has been around since like forever?
