RIM updates Yahoo and Google Talk IM clients
Research in Motion updated their Yahoo and Google Talk clients for BlackBerry devices to version 2.0. These are available for download by accessing http://mobile.blackberry.com on your BlackBerry device. It would appear the update includes better contacts management, as well as contact picture enhancements (aka avatars and buddy icons). The Yahoo client, still blocked by AT&T for reasons still unknown, also reportedly adds interoperability with Windows Live Messenger and file sending capabilities.

This is still why JiveTalk is so good.
Im+ sucks now. Its too junky. Jivetalk Is simple and relible
i have only tried the yahoo client and it is the best IM program out there for thr BB and i love jive talk but this is the new hotness
Jivetalk
When are we going to see an AIM update???
(I have jivetalk, but I like the native apps better)
how about a IM ShootOut?
I like jivetalk.
But it it will be nice to se an update to Aim too.
It doesn’t show my whole buddy list
True, Jivetalk is great fanboys, but some of us just like our native apps, thank you.
Tried jive talk this is better
does this work on verizon bberries? i’m still thinking about leaving for at&t, but in nyc i hear the at&t network is just not as reliable.
Native apps are better UNLESS they are blocked for reasons unknown. I have to agree that Jivetalk is very a sweet app.
ok i keep trying to install it and i get a java run error and its not on my fucking screen wtf
Just tried new gtalk and ym, loved it.
Yo jibi… whats that theme you are running?
Thank god. My Google Talk kept crashing in 4.2.1.107.
do these apps work over the internet subscription like jive talk or count as text messages?
and to bgr, your circuit city ads are very very irritating, make them stop.
Just downloaded.. This looks much better when compared to the old version IMO.
Downloaded the new GMail app for my BlackBerry and love it. One question: how do I get my contact photos from Gmail on my desktop to load on GTalk on my BlackBerry? There’s a spot for contact photos, but it’s greyed out, and I can’t figure out how to get it to populate.
I use Yahoo messenger and upgraded to the newest version.
How can you downgrade again to chat with msn again?
hi open new version support wifi in some area were no network , wifi is handy , basicly if u have wifi at home, to reduce broswing cost .
like my country fiji , u can hardly get network in the the house . so wifi is the option there to browse net.
