Default New (2nd Hand) Touch Dual....rom?

Hi - I have just purchased an MDA Touch Plus (HTC Touch Dual) second hand and it hasn't got the T-Mobile (UK) rom on it but something from "Black Mary". Now, I understand that this seems to be an update to WM6.1 and de-branded and all, but one of the reasons I got the WM device was for syncing to my Hotmail email - I have seen that Hotmail email can be received in the standard Inbox application.

Well - this device doesn't appear to have MSN Messenger or any way to access Hotmail from anything other than the web browser....is this something that has been removed from the rom version I have and if so, how do I go back to an original ROM? I have tried at HTC but when I put in the serial number of the device it says that the ROM they have is not suitable (presumably because I am using a T-Mobile and not generic device).

Any help would be great - been out of the WM land for over a year and feel a bit out of date!

I think you could find the original ROM in this thread.

You also can just install the Windows Live software into your Niki again.

Thanks - can't find the T-Mobile UK ROM anywhere in that thread - seems that there are loads of people wanting that one!

So much for Windows Live. Installed...sync'd....downloaded email once. Now sync fails every time. Seems to happen to a LOT of people on a lot of devices. Bit too much to ask MS to get their OS talking to their email servers. Oh well.

I don't know if hotmail supports it, but I use gmail with IMAP4, and it works like a charm, maybe that'll help?
