I used to run RIM Yahoo, RIM GoogleTalk and OZ or Ramble for AIM all at the same time with no problems. Then I bought IM+, then started testing JT.
takes more space, more flash memory, you will use up all your open ports (limited on BB) and consume your battery faster. At least this is my understanding...

PS I would never pay $50 for an IM program such as IM+. I mean i like IM+ but i do not think $50 is the right price...
