Hi guys
I am wondering... What messenger client are you using on your P900? I haven't been able to find the perfect application yet. Here are my experiences so far:
1. TipicMe - Won't allow saving of data 'in Transport', so it's impossible to set up accounts.
2. TipicMe Pro - Can't connect.
3. Agile Messenger - Still missing the bottom part of screen. Won't connect to Yahoo. 'Low level network error' stops ICQ from connecting.
4. cMessenger - Shows ICQ contacts as UID instead of name, regardless of the setup. Makes an incredible noise whenever a contact is found online.
5. JMSN (Pro) - One way communication, i.e. you can write a message, but not receive. I thought this could be because I haven't registered the program yet, but maybe not. Anyone else with this problem?
6. IM+ - This really has potential, since all the major networks are included. The program even works, but the interface is incredible primitive. Haven't changed much since I tried it early P800 days...
7. 12Planet (Instant Symbian) MSN - Looks like a less advanced version of JMSN. But at least it is working.
There are a few ok programs here, but the only one working with all the protocols (ICQ, MSN, Yahoo...) is IM+ and I really have a hard time coming to terms with that old fashion interface.
I don't think a single of these programs are worth the money ($30 for most of them), but I got to have access to at least the MSN network.
So, what is your choice, you opinion and your recommendation?

I've tried them all and there's not a good one among them. They all keep crashing etc.
I've just set up my P800 as a GPRS modem for my laptop so I can use MSN Messenger direct and it works great.
I've never had a problem connecting to TipicME, but it does lose connection to the server a lot.

There's a new Agile Messenger beta available, if you sign up
http://agilenoc.com/beta/.
It's a bit primitive, nothing at all like the jMSN, but it's working, and it's free!

gj man I will try it out btw about jMSN some ppl says that you must have a pretty new .net acount for getting it to works. ust go to passport.net and sign a new one and try it out.
But now there is a greater problem I have tried to change between 2 differents acount both new .net acount but only 1 will works, it seems that the one you choose at the first is the one you must have in the "trial, demo" version so you cant swap users. At least it is so for me.
I wounder wish client sends less data irc client or msn client (it will be cheaper in the way hehe). And if irc client also dropping connection that mush as msn.

The MSN account I am trying to use was created yesterday. Not that I think it really matters. Anyway, I am in contact with the jMSN guys and I hope they will find a solution.
Instant Symbian is an alias for 12Planet, which is #7 in my original posting.
