it would rock if google talk uses data (MDS or IBBB) rather than SMS for instant messaging.

Jibi, do you know when this product will be available?
Will it be available for the 8700 that T-Mobile will not be selling?

I noticed this too on my 7290 tonight. I just upgraded my ATTW to Cingular's 4.0.2.56, but dunno if it was related. No GoogleTalk icons.

so from what i read google talk allows you to talk to other chat clients IE AIM... Currently I use ramble and it signs me off every so often like there i no tomorrow (were talking 2 times a minute). and this is my second 7130e w/ ramble doing it! This will be an alternative correct?

Nope. Google Talk only allows conversations with other Google Talk users. This is based on Jabber, so you will also be allowed to converse with other Jabber clients, I believe.

once its out of beta, you will likely be able to go to a download page on RIM's BlackBerry.com website and download it ... very similar to how the Yahoo download 'worked'. i'm glad they went ahead and learned from their past fiasco and allowed the service book PRIOR to making it available on the web.
FYI, it's available on T-Mobile as well - just have to register on a new HRT.
