I have been using Jive Talk for about 15 days now (with the free trial) and I have made some observations that bug me about this software and may prevent me from actually purchasing a full license for this product:
First off, it seems to take up too much free memory or bandwith from the phone to keep updating the buddy list constantly. I see this as a good and a bad thing.
The perks are obvious but the downsides are big set backs.
For a phone that doesn't have much memory to begin with, jivetalk consumes a lot of that while typing within the client, and outside of the client.
This prohibits me from writing long winded responses (which i enjoy greatly
) and limits me to short responses in splits of a few words (which also seems to slow up my device because of the graphic memory dedication)
Secondly, My yahoo account still does not work and I've been trying to fix this since I subscribed to the free trial. This would also stop me from buying based on the fact that I use yahoo a lot as well.
I hope these can be addressed in future releases or maybe an alternative can be presented to me.
Thanks hope this helps in some way...
