Amir, How did you get the picture function to work? My blackberry 8310 freezes after the picture is taken.

It doesn’t work on pure BIS-B. You’ll need a direct TCP/APN connection.

I got it to work….all of it. All features are working very well. The faster your phone the more reliable it gets…

Wow, was super excited to install this but after install kept telling me that the accounts I was entering were not able to log in. Fail.

Yeah don’t install this crap. The picture function simply doesn’t work. I didn’t see a way to hide offline contacts. Oh and my phone just popped up an hourglass for about 3 minutes at a time everytime I came back from standyby while the program was running. Just get JiveTalk instead.

Make sure you are using a Blackberry as your emulator not netscape, It can make a difference

-Answering my own question:

I found in their forums that they only support

8100, 8300, 8800 series devices.

“Unfortunately we can’t recognize your device or it isn’t on our supported list at the moment.”

Works on my Pearl very well and yes..Push to talk works as well.
I tried it with a Moto Q9 which uses windows mobile 5 and I really can’t complain…it does what it should do.
Text…isn’t that impressive, I’ve seen yahoo messenger much more impressive and Mig33 but it’s ok.
Photos didn’t work, it has to be 64Kb or less and I still didn’t work on how that is transfered since it activates your camera to take shots once you click on the option itself but doesn’t do anything else afterwards…
Overall…you have to have a data plan to make it work and for international reasons…two thumbs up.
