Hey guys,
I have MSN Messenger installed on my Treo and it works perfectly fine ... the only problem is with all the graphics and such, it uses quite a lot of wireless data. I noticed in a short MSN Messenger session I (or my wife, actually) uses ~ 500KB of data. That's quite a lot for what is primarily a text messenger.
Since she doesn't have an unlimited data package, I'm looking for a MSN Messenger alternative. I tried agile messenger and it's not bad ... but it is not a freeware and I don't really need to connect to multiple messengers at once ... just MSN is fine.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Hey, I have been using Palringo, which has been working just right, all you need is to create an account (free) at their site, and download the app.
It has much better graffics than IM+ by the way....
I too used Palringo (www.palringo.com) -- great free app. Aesthetically pleasing, lite app.
Recently I've been using JiveTalk from www.beejive.com. Very slick interface with very sweet touch scrolling. It's currently only in a free alpha release, but its been working very well.
hey guys, just to let everybody know, i've ended up using slick and it works great!

Hi its me again!
I found a very useful icq client.
Its called QIP and comes from Russia
The features are better then the most commercial icq tools!
Its also possible to create away messages and use the new icq status icons!
So far QIP only supports ICQ and no other protocol!
For me its perfect, so give it a try!
Added to attachments or download here:

Have fun!
Sigh. ICQ used to be the king of IM.. and it has tons of features that MSN and Yahoo can't offer. However, as years went by, my friends started to use MSN instead and I was forced to abandon my ICQ....

msn is good aswell, but i really prefer the icq protocol and my friends, too
ICQ
ICQ is very popular only in Russia.
The rest of the world prefered something else, but russians have no idea about.
much like yahoo aim seem to be mostly popular in us
in germany icq is very popular, too

Hey guys,
I use a Touch HD on T-Mobile basic web'n'walk, now I've heard many times that you can't use MSN or Skype or even FTPs. However the windows live on the phone functions perfectly, this is not the case though when I use it as a modem for my laptop.
So Basically I was wondering if there is a work around to get it to work on a laptop or computer as it works on the phone. Maybe a proxy or tunnel could do it?
Lastly if the above isn't possible what is the best web-based msn client? At the moment I use meebo and MSN web-messenger but I'm looking for something more developed than that.
Thanks in advance.
Bump - someonemust have an idea on this.
hi
i have been using palringo which is great or handling different IM accounts and contacts unfortunately it does not support skype IM.
does anyone have any good recommendations for something else that supports skype IM (NOT voice or video calls etc)?
i have tried Fring which is OK but not particularly configurable re notifications etc. and eBuddy is java and fiddly to use on my htc touch hd.
anything else out there that's good?
thanks
don
Yeah, now that fring dropped Skype, is there any alternative??
I only would like to have skype IM, and facebook IM in one application...
nimbuzz is very good
Does nimbuzz exist for Windows mobile?
It does, and free
Thank you, will try! I looked over their page and I forund only HTC android devices to be supported.
Since nimbuzz quit skype, the problem exists again!! Any new suggestions?? thanks
Any Window Live Messenger apps for Android? WinMo has sweet a sweet official one that you can send voice clips, transfer files on and stuff like that.
Most of the 'MSN' 'Windows Live Messenger' apps I see looks like someone crayoned the design. It's that horrible ;o
Any official clients ?
the one i like the best in MSN talk
there is MSN talk free and MSN talk pro
I'll second MSN Talk, best client out there for android. Unless you prefer something that ebuddy that gives you access to AIM and whtnot as well.
