Palringo is indeed "lacking". The inability to keep multiple messanger windows open at one time, for instance. I'm only allowed to talk to one person? Your options when in a message are "send" or "close", and if you close it, there's no list of current windows. It's nice and all, but the lack of that features is a deal-breaker for me.

However i've installed the regular classic aim, and i've had issues with it before, always getting "this IP is already in use" or "Communications error". I've yet to figure out how to resolve these issues. If anyone has insight, it would be greatly appriciated.

For those that are curious, you can download classic aim for windows mobile here:

I have had this working before, just not consistantly, and never for long. When it works, it is exactly what i'm looking for. Maybe Palringo can take the ability for multiple windows, even if emulated, or a tab for messages that you currently have open, from AOL & AIM and integrate it into their system.
