If you are using gprs to connect to the Internet, this would seem to be normal behavior as the gprs connection is interrupted when the phone is in use. At least that has been my experience. Can you use the web browser while the phone is in use?

Is it possible to change the font size, x position etc of the Octrotalk plug-in on the home screen, i love the tool but the plug-in style is clashing with my super good-looking home screen right now

to make this the best im software out there. imho, you should support image transfers and audio transfer.

file transfer is hot, its a good first step.

g'luck.

Image transfer is already there in the latest version, and doesn't VOIP work for you for audio transfer? We let you talk to the other person (have a live conversation) -- we will also add support to send a voicemail on GoogleTalk soon.

You need video support using the built-in cameras. I have a 6700 by the way. This feature is already in Microsoft Portrait, but it is difficult to use since often need to get ip addresses.

We have released a new AIM transport (the backend server that let's connect to AIM), and it should resolve the issues some users (particular UserIDs) were having trying to connect to AIM -- no need to use the ICQ transport for connecting to AIM.

Also, about video messaging -- it is on our list of things to do -- hopefully, we will get to it soon.

Octro,

Is there a list of pending suggestions / upgrades / fixes that can be viewed so we do not keep bugging you about things you are already addressing? A change log might be nice with each release as well so we know what to test.

Does this or will this ever include Yahoo Messenger?

I currently have Verichat and my liscense isn't supposed to expire until Nov but I have been unable to connect for the past few days. All of my contacts are on Yahoo, that's why I ask?
