Jivetalk is the best solution by far! in beta stages, but works really well!

Hello, i'm thinking about buying a blackberry pearl 8100 with apn flat...
i want to use a multi-network messaging client on this handset. is there a client, which works fine on this handset? are there any disadvantages? because the display is very small compared to the other blackberrys... does anyone use this handset? what are your experiences about it?

Are any of this softwares for msn messenger able to use msn voice call, to talk with your msn buddys?

when i try to login the ramble aim messnger... it will not allow me and this comes up " Invalid connection string : open tunnel failure"

I have given up on Ramble for a long while. I use JiveTalk and I love it so much.

is there an IM program that uses SMS for the pearl?? just wondering cuz i have unlimited texts and wanted to put them to good use...

I think this question has probably been answered here, but I just wanted to make sure.

I have unlimited data plan with enterprise email from T-Mobile on my Pearl. I downloaded RIM yahoo messenger from the blackberry site. Now from reading this thread, I understand that I use the RIM yahoo messenger ( not the OZ one ), then I will be using my data plan to send and recieve messages and not the SMS text ( I dont have text plan and each text is charged at 15 cents ).

Am I correct ? I dont want to pay for text messages.

Thanks for your replies

ur correct...u wont get charged for any texts...dont worry

upps sorry wrong post, should post on JiveTalk thread

Ok ok..I searched..read...searched..read some more..still confused. I downloaded the Y! messenger program..installed it..have the icon and when I try to log in it says to go to www.blackberry.com/go/yahoo to register...I go there and log in via the web messenger and all is fine..but when I go to log into the icon for the program it says the same message as above...so..does this program work with the 7130c? I am on a BIS..and confused. Any help is appreciated.

Make sure you have the correct service books. Try either resending them from your BIS page or selecting options > advanced options > host routing table, select the top entry, click the wheel and hit register.

If that doesn't work you might want to call your carrier to see if they have the Service Books for it.

Which is the best AIM service/chat program to use on a T-Mobile 8700g in the UK? I currently have the free Ramble one but I find it very unstable and it boots me off constantly so I'm looking for something a little more secure/steady.

Thanks!

I am in love with jive talk! It is great.

Coming from a treo and Verichat, this is truly an awesome IM app - keep sme connected to all services and the developer is fast and responsive.

I would love to see an auto connect after reset and option to set time conect schedule.

Cheers

im using quickIm the trial version and it is cool.the interface is cheap but it goes really good.i juste can't wait to get the realese of windows live messanger....

Does anyone know if there are plans to release a working AIM client that uses SMS? I have OZ but it doesnt work. I get stuck at 80%.

help?

Most msn programs dont seem to run on my bb.. so i visit www.e-buddy-.com on it and then i can log into my msn just fine

AGILEMOBILE.COM

They had been run beta testing of agile messenger J2ME (like IM+)

Perfect cyrillic compatibility at blackberry!

I've had the 7130, 8703 and now the 8830 (all from Sprint). I cannot seem to getting AIM working...I've seen some people using it but I'm not sure how. Does anyone know?

The link for BB Messenger in the first post of this thread is dead. Anyone know where I can download BB Messenger?

Hmm, maybe from Blackberry??

Does anyone know if you can use BB Messenger from your desktop? I know that I can install the BlackBerry Manager software and create low level users to be able to do this, but I would much rather have people using a piece of middleware not directly linked to my BES.

I'm looking for a way to chat using multiple google talk screen names at the same time...is this possible? I'm using Talk now on my non-BES Pearl w/AT&T but it only allows one screen name to sign in at a time.

HEY I found this:

Google Talk "Hacks"

Google Talk also has several "hacks" or things you can use to enhance your communicational experience. They include making your words italic and bold. Also many users have found out a way to log in with multiple logins by changing the target of the shortcut.

Here: Google Talk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

But I doubt it can be used with the BB client...if anyone knows how to do it on the web, please let me know.
