Yahoo/MSN Messenger on PDA/mobile

rikg21 · 08-12-2004, 18:13

Hi There,
I was wondering whether or not anyone out there in the UK is using MSN and Yahoo Messenger on their mobile phone or PDA devices? I would dearly love to know if any mobile or PDA like device works with instant messaging applications. Perhaps somone is using third part programs like the one available at

If so please let me know how their service works. There's also a small PDA like device being sold in the States caled the OGO which lets you connect to MSN+Yahoo Messenger as well as ICQ. Check it out at http://www.attwireless.com/cell-phon...1B1E4IAAAAAHAA
Any ideas when we'll be getting it over here?

MSN on the SPV C500 works extremely well, I can say that much.

I use Agile Messenger on my nokia 3650, it will allow you to use Yahoo/Aol/MSN/ICQ simultaneously. You can even send voice messages and pictures. There are versions available for must PDA/smartphones. Best of all its free!

Some new handsets, eg Motorola v600 have a IMPS messaging client built in, but these require the use of a third party server and are difficult to set up.
