Suggestions for IM on Palm w/WiFi

[JavaJiveJump]

I'm looking for an instant messaging program for my Palm LifeDrive over WiFi.

JiveTalk for Blackberry is a multi-chat client that incorporates Y!, AIM, MSN, G-Talk, etc.

Something like that would be great for Palm.

Thanks for any suggestions.

MunduIM, the best!

WOW! This looks great and sounds fantastic!! Just what I was looking for! And less than 1/2 the price of JiveTalk for BB.

Thank you much!

If you want free: Gizmo (http://gizmoproject.com/treo) now makes a free client based on Chatopus that can handle most protocols (and will soon handle the rest). I've switched from Mundu to Gizmo as I like having access to my Jabber accounts and GTalk account.

Nice _Em! Thanks.

I got the trial of Mundu and found that I can only use one user ID per medium. I have two AIM accounts (one for work contacts and the other for friends). I can only log on to one at any given time.

I have only dabbled with Gizmo on my PC, so this should be fun. (Trillian is my main multi-chat client).

Anyway, I will check if Gizmo allows more freedom in this. Thanks!

(mundu does have a nice interface, though).

Hi! i've installed mundu 4.1 but when i tried to log-in to my yahoo messenger it says "authentication failed". so i tried chatopus. i signed up a jabber account with alpha-labs.net but then, i can't even log into my jabber account, and it says login failed. please help!

with all of those infos you give us it´ll be hard.

I use chatopus, I might be able to help, but i´ve lost my magic glass bowl.

@juggernaut#2 what other info you might need? i use it on my TX. with regards to chatopus,, i signed up with alpha-labs.net. in the set-up window, i typed alpha-labs.net as IP address. anything else should i enable in options?

we´re talking about Chatopus 2.51, right?

within the account setup screen, you´ll put the server address as the URL, but without the leading "http://", i.e. as in "alpha-labs.net", in the second window your username without anything else, because chatopus will build your jabber address out of those, as in "user@jabber.org". so, assuming that your 1src username is your jabber username as well, and that your jabber server is usually to be found under "http://alpha-labs.net", you should type that as described above to get the final result of "marts_8@alpha-labs.net"

EDIT: you´ll get further info here. (http://www.chatopus.com/support/getting_started.html)

er, im using the 2.04 version. but i've also tried what you said (marts_8; alpha-labs.net) but same result.

_Em, this link does not show any palm version for d/l. it says it´s been aquired by google. does this still work ?

EDIT: ok, found out ´bout it ... it doesn´t. I found the files all right, but this it what it says:

is there a way to keep an IM client connected over wifi, even after the screen goes off?
