AIM for Windows Mobile - Beta

[ManuTouch]

So wait a second....if you have it running in the background, and someone IM's you, it won't tell you about it like the standard AIM client that comes with the Touch? If it doesn't do that, what's the point of having it run in the background?

This is the best Aim so far, if only it wasnt so slowly, then it would be prefect and also a Today pulgin would be nice

awesome program....i mean i really like it.

would like it more, and might consider using it instead of slick, but im on a titan, not vogue, so it takes waaay to much memory...were talking 11.1 mb of ram to run.

it would pretty much need to be the only thing i have running at the time.

maybe a future release would decrease the amount of memory needed.

thanks though

This is the first beta release of the AIM client so I'm sure it'll get better as they develop it further.
