Is this a seperate download from ChatterEmail, or a download from somewhere else. I would love this functionality seeing that the holidays are here and many I want to keep IMing while at teh table eating and talkign turkey :dry:
According to several threads the Treo650 has a problem recognizing the "@" sign so any @mac.com account does not work when used on Verichat or any other messenger.
Have anyone found a way around it?
I'll look into this...

I used to use Chit Chat Lite (which is a strictly MSN app). After reading lulugirls' review I swithched to IM+. If you haven't yet read her review, then I highly reccomend it.
I like Verichat best, since it is easy to use, and has the capacity for multiple screen names on one client, but I think Mundu works very well, too, and is not quite as costly (one-time charge rather than annual). IM+ didn't work well for me.
Hi all; new to the forum. You guys seem to be cool beans!
I currently use Verichat; it's great! I'm still in the trial period, but the functionality is wonderful. It's just like being on IM on my PC. I have used IM+ on my Blackberry and hated it. Verichat is the way to go...least it is for me anyway...

I'll give a vote to IM+. The annual license for Verichat just kills it for me. I have had great luck with IM+.
Edit: And by the way, Welcome in to the Friendliest Treo forum on the World Wide Web Karsten!

I've not picked one of these apps yet since I have a couple of questions:
- can you install any of these onto an SD card or do they have to be run from the internal memory?
- I use MSN for most of my IM, but am also using AIM a lot more lately. Any leanings to one particular product for overall compatibility? The reason I ask this is due to MS and AOL changing their protocols to keep third party tools like these from working. I know there was a time when some of the desktop tools (like Trillian) would have to update a couple of times a week to keep up the support.
For now, it looks like IM+ is looking the best, although I need to go out and find Mundu to see how it works.
So, I have the new 700p and I downloaded Verichat. I like it, but I've come across a problem I was hoping someone could help me with.
If you're not chatting and the Treo goes into screen saver mode, it logs you off. The maximum amount of time before the 700p puts itself to sleep is 3 minutes (even when I have it docked). I use yahoo im when i'm at work on my Treo (because it's blocked on my work computer), but it gets very annoying when I have to sign back in all the time.
So, my question is: Is there a way to keep it from logging off when the Treo shuts off its screen while idle? Hell, is there a way to keep the Treo from going to sleep after just 3 minutes? I would rather just turn the screen off myself when I don't want it on.
My question is not about IM clients but rather if Treo has support for instant messaging without internet access.
Currently I have a Samsung T509 with Cingular and I am able to log into all my IM accounts (aim, msn, yahoo) without having to have internet access (built in application). I think this is called "text message login", I'm not sure. I am ofcourse charged per IM as a text message but I have a good text message plan.
So I know Cingular supports this but my question is if I can have it work with a Treo 650 the same way, without internet access.
