I haven't used it, I've only used Beejive IM and I think the 30 min log in time limit is a deal breaker for me...what good is push if your only logged in 30 mins after you exit the app? I dont like how laggy swtiching from landscape to portrait is with Beejive IM and that I cant see my Myspace IM buddy list, but other than that....i think it's still the best overall all-in-one IM client. Best looking UI at least.
 
Second this. Each update just made it better and better. I use my desktop client less and less
Third.
I don't use my desktop client at all because of Beejive.

And about the topic, no I'm not tired of Beejive ;)
 
30 minutes is a pretty major downside..and beejive is going to 7 days with the next update.
 
Hey, with Nimbuzz I cannot see any of my contacts online, when I know I have at least 50 online on both MSN and facebook. Anybody else struggling with this and/or know how to solve this?
 
lmao, i have had 0 problems with beejive, and my current login period is 4 days. Nimbuzz to replace beejive?! LMAO... now you are really desperate.
 
Can I ask a really REALLY dumb question?

Why do all these IM apps deploy different "stay logged in times?"

I mean, why not just have a toggle switch that says logged in or not logged in.

And if you leave it for a month, you are signed in for a month?

Not sure I get the need to have a limit, so what am I missing?
