Just got an iPhone and see there are several AIM clients out there. Any recommendations as to what one to get? or should I just hold out since the SDK was just released.
 
MobileChat is pretty awesome now that it has the landscape keyboard.

I used to really like Apollo because of being able to log into multiple accounts at once, but the ease of typing in MobileChat makes it much more worth it for me.

Ease of use trumps additional functionality any day.

As soon as Apollo gets the landscape keyboard, I will swap back.
 
They all crash if you chat too much. All crap.

Agreed! I tried them for a bit, and enjoyed them for about 3-4 days, but got REALLY sick of having them crash, log me out, fail to log in, etc so I stopped using either of the two.

Instead I just configured my AIM account to automatically set to "Mobile" when I get off my computer. Now anyone who wants to write me on AIM can do so and it sends me a text message (I have unlimited anyways). The only downside to this method is that I haven't really found a good way to initiate a conversation or see who's online.:rolleyes: oh well
