nikhil s lol how much is the premium?
and ditto jimski on this one. wish we could get the nice one on marketplace though :p
jimski OK, so I caved and setup my account w/Marketplace and downloaded Midomi. At least I can finally tap the Menu button and not crash the app. It has a couple more features than the pirated copy, but of course it loaded in main memory. It’s only 2.2MB (smaller than the Samsung version), but I may move it to the Storage Card anyway (only three reg keys to change).
Couldn’t find the install as it created a folder labeled; /Program Files/Identifier and Search, and the exe file is MelodisWindowsMobile.exe. But it can find songs as well as the old version so I am a happy camper.
Saw this but I think I am going to stick with the hijacked version of Midomi for now. It works and I like the YouTube links, etc. I did notice that I can purchase a legit version of Midomi at Marketplace for $4.99.
