Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

well, slick is an awesome program...but when my unit "powers down" i get disconnected.

Must I ALWAYS leave the mogul on, draining my battery??

I need an always on solution..is there a workaround? thanks

Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

I personally like fring the best. It covers all including the rare Skype.
First, I'm cheap, so I stick with the free ones.
Secondly I hate ugly UI's so that takes out Slick and IMOV.
Octro is cool, but it adds unnecesary crap on my PC Google Talk contacts.
Palringo is cool, but it limits you to one open IM chat window.

Re: Instant Messaging -which one are you using?

I agree with the comment about IM+ becoming more buggy and unstable but it remains my IM program of choice. Slick is nice, but the user interface is a bit of a turn off.
