Windows Mobile Mobile Applications

My Phone is the latest WinMo service by Microsoft allowing users to backup their phone files and personal info online. The service was launched back in February, but it's only now that it's finally opened to everyone with Windows Mobile devices without the bugging invitation procedure - all you need to access it is a Windows Live account.

My Phone can perform daily backup of all data on your WinMo device - from the contacts to the multimedia content. There is a limit of course and it's 200MB of storage, which we can say is pretty enough for the critical info.

The backup content can be accessed later online or can be used to restore your data to a new device if, for instance, you misplace yours.

In the future, the service will even allow you to change your wallpaper, ringtone and some more basic settings directly through the web interface eliminating the need to dig in the phone's settings.

Microsoft promise they'll continue the integration of My Phone with many Windows Live services such as Live's contacts, photos, calendar, etc.

My Phone most probably will be integrated with the upcoming, but already became popular Windows 7 desktop OS, and will be available as a standard option when you connect a WinMo device.

You can access the My Phone service form here.
