Anyone use the Oz IM client on T-Mo? Just wondering if anyone does, seems the majority of people here us one of the data IM programs out there.
I use it only because I have the unlimited SMS package.

Does anyone know what models these official apps will work on? Only the 8700 series, or also the 7100 and 7200?

No one knows. It can be speculated that 'all' devices will be supported. As mentioned previously, there are files available for mono devices (6200, 7200 series, etc), so I would imagine that this will be just like the Yahoo client (let me harp on that assumption a bit) and support all of the handhelds on a number of OS versions.

Heh, I remember I was thinking the same thing when word of these apps first came out nearly a year ago, and am I glad I bought VeriChat, otherwise I would have been waiting for quite a while. Hopefully these apps will be up to par with the other apps out there.

If they are OFFICIAL IM applications then I'm sure they will be up to par with the others and then some.

Personally, I prefer VeriChat, but I believe there are free trials for both IM+ and VeriChat, download each and use them, then decide which one you prefer.

Take a look here, I've got some instructions on how to make Y!M work on Cingular's network. =)

I for one can't wait till these are released. The RIM GTalk client is so superior to anything else on the Blackberry I have told all my contacts that if you want to talk to me, you have to use it.... Can't wait for the MSN / AIM clients.

Any updates on expected date?

To the best of my knowledge, no active open socket -- it is supposed to be true push, in the same line as RIM's email technology.

For this reason, RIM's instant messaging utilities are the most battery-preserving instant messaging clients, so I am looking forward to these.

Remember, RIM has already released Yahoo, Google Talk, and BlackBerry Messenger.

Simmer down now. You probably won't see them for awhile.

Does anyone know if the AIM program will be available within the next 2-3 months? And will it definately be available to Cingular users? (I've heard that Cingular users have problems with the Yahoo Messenger program)

I'm thinking of getting the new Pearl on Cingular, and I noticed it doesn't come bundled with AIM like the T-Mobile version. Unfortunately I have used a Blackberry on Cingular and they charge extra for wap-based data (data used by 3rd party programs), so I need a program that uses the blackberry.net access point. If I know for sure it will be an option soon enough, then I may get the Pearl.
