I downloaded EQO to my BB for free IM. EQO supports MSN, AIM, Yahoo, Google Talk, QQ, ICQ and Jabber. You also get free/cheap texts and cheap long distance. Check it out - http://www.EQO.com

Hi, I’ve had the the “http 500″ error for long time but I was able to download it today. I’m on a carrier named Iusacell in Mexico, and I believe the download is carrier-independent. It apparently works, it connects, I see the contact list with display pictures and everything, I can send messages, but somehow I cannot receive them sometimes. I’ve chatted succesfully only once, other times I can only send but not receive. I think it’s still buggy and will continue using the mig33 client which I like because it’s fast.

The only functionalities that the official msn has that other’s doesn’t it’s an “alert function” that vibrates when a contact you specify comes online, and the ability to associate the contacts with address book contacts.

What I’d be glad to have is a messenger where I can use a feature like pressing F2 in windows live messenger, to use it like push to talk or something.

It was very upseting that I couldn’t wokr live messenger from my curve. So upseting that I terminated my live account invited all my contacts to Google Talk. Screw Live Messenger!

Hi, interesting discussion. I personally use ICQ and especially it’s web version ICQ 2 go. It might seem strange to you but ICQ is still the most popular IM in my country.

I’ve been reading all the posts and I’ve concluded that it officially isn’t working ads IT SHOULD. I happen to own a bb curve 8320 and it initially came with those really cool apps but when trying to actually USE them, the the network issue comes up over and over.. I mean…we’ve got to realize There’s truly a pattern whether if we are in USA, singapore, or my country Venezuela.

My 8320 Curve from TMO came installed with windows live messenger - worked forever… when i upgraded to 4.3 this week (which is awesome) it didnt re-install and I can’t get it back - even bb.com says its only available on the 8800 …makes no sense, since I had been using it since December

I can’t get access to the download because I use Safari and it requires Internet Explorer… Any idea where I can download the live messenger with safari??
