Anyone successful with Cingular & 8700c?

I got it installed fine (chose my carrier is not listed), but when I try and sign in, it says "Please visit www.blackberry.com/go/yahoo to activate your handheld for Yahoo! Messenger

Here's a stupid question that probably gets a stupid answer.

I've got a 7250 with alltel. I don't have a data plan and I use the BIS to get mail. So does Y! IM work like the free BIS or do I have to have a data plan to get it working?

Works great on Cellular One/Dobson 8700g

Cingy still no worky...Thanks Cingular! And so much for RIM branded AIM client in Q1! So sad...

Works just fine on T-Mobile on my 7290

Now if RIM can make this same thing for MSN Messenger, I'll be really happy

Hi,

I have BB 8700g on T-Mobile and try to install the yahoo messenger. I tried to installl it both from browser and desktop mgr. Both says that the installation is successful, however the icon is not there.

However option/advance options/application shows that yahoo messenger is installed. Any pointers?

I'm running OS 4.1.0.284 with Zen theme enabled.

Thanks.

i downloaded the YM through http://www.blackberry.com/yahoodownload from my , So far everything is working fine with my
now all i need is the ym button shortcuts for 7290 tmobile.

thanks for the heads up guys :D

It uses the BB's built-in autotext, so you can create any shortcuts you want!!

What I don't understand is why wasn't Cingular the first to enable Yahoo! Messenger? Yahoo! is owned my at&t.

Cingular's just begging me to port over to T-Mobile.

Ok, the reason is that cingular has not signed the licensing deal yet...so more waiting. I just switched back to t-mobile...reception sucks tho..
