Hey
So I want to access the US marketplace?
I already got an Austrian Acc so I just want to know if i can see the marketplace and download app. It is really annoying that not all apps are available everywhere....
Thanks

I live in malta and the android market only gives away free apps, is there a way to access the other apps without rooting my phone?
everyone i had asked in malta had told me to resort to downloading these apps off some website

No - in order to use Market Enabler, you need to root your device.

Hi Guys,
Anyone noticed that in the UK the Zune software has no podcasts listed. The PODCAST icon does not even exist.
I have to manually add my rss feeeds for each one?
anyone seen this.
Thanks

It's still very early days for Zune in Europe. I've had a Zune HD for a year and I've seen the US Marketplace and it's another world. You have more music, podcasts, a lot more movies and also (many) TV shows (plus Zune HD apps).
Hopefully Microsoft will work on that a lot more than they did with Xbox Live (Europe content is rubbish compared to the US). Apple did it, I don't see why Microsoft can't, they have to want it though.
Here's to hope...

It gets even worse if you update your Zunes through the UK version.
You lose access to the marketplace on your devices, and as late as last week you couldn't get any 'Channels' either.
Altho, now we can get some dumbed down (IMO useless) channels.
Is it possible to use my PC for UK Marketplace and my Laptop for USA marketplace?
So having access to both?
I already use a VPN service to access USA only sites like HULU with no problems..
I live in belgium and made an "belgian" live account, now I can only rent a movie, no music or apps or podcasts... We wait and see
Thanks for the confirmation everyone. Shame as they even mention adding podasts via the Zune software Marketplace on the UK windows phone site!
Hopefully its coming as I can understand Video being a rights issues internationally but Podcasts?

You can't use the same Live ID as it is be based in one location.
You'll need two ID's and Zune Pass's (1x UK 1x US) to use both at the same time.
I'm still looking for a better solution.

Have you tried setting your PC so it 'thinks' its in the US ?
You won't be able to login and buy anything (see above) but it should let you grab some Podcasts.
This trick worked for me, and allowed me to get Podcats and the Marketplace back on my Zunes. I don't have a WP7 phone yet so i don't know if it works with them.
It's easier to just get the rss and subscribe manually, at least he can use his actual Live ID and the marketplace.
I know some of you new WP7 owners, like myself , are irritated with how the Zune marketplace always jumps back to the top when browsing the apps.
I began looking for a way to browse apps without needing to use the marketplace and I found 2 things:
1. There's this app called Top Apps which collects all the top apps for you to browse from your phone. I just got it an hour ago and it seems to work pretty well. But it's not on your PC, which is what I really wanted so I found a bing website,
2. Just use the search term WP7 app list in bing and a gallery is one of the results and it shows the apps available. Not sure if it's all of them but it looks like it and it's damn convenient IMHO.
Hope this helps someone out there. You have any other methods? Please share.
For Zune.. Just recreate a new hotmail account, and make sure it is a USA as the country when you sign up... and just use this for downloading apps from the market place. I am in canada, so my email was originally created as Canada, and so can't use it.. it is a known issue at this time. So the only workaround from Microsoft is to create new hotmail account and use that.

I'm not exactly sure what the question is.... Live services could be pertaining to the "Ring", "Lock", and "Map" features. But again, shot in the dark.
ok well when WP7 rom is released what wont you be able to do on it? will features like internet explorer be enabled?
Not sure what rom are you referring to?
The one for the HD2??
Not sure but I'm guessing it means anything you need to use your windows live ID to sign in.
So youre windows live contacts, xbox live, windows live calander, live email etc, basically their cloud services. I dont see the point in using the phone without many of these features as its a big part of the way the phone works.
Is it possible to see a list of the apps I purchased or the free ones I downloaded on in WP7? I am looking for some similiar function to the androind apps marketplace that tracks what I have installed.
Someone playing with my phone deleted apps and I would like to try and figure out which ones and reinstall them from the marketplace.
Is this functionality available in WP7?
UPDATE:
I FOUND THE ANSWER IN THE ACCOUNT SETTINGS
