Threaded SMS for Blackjack OR 8525?

I am a Palm 650 user, and I am looking at these two phones. One of the features I really like on the 650 is the threaded SMS display. I get and respond to a lot of SMS messages throughout the day, and seeing them as I would an IM log is handy. Do either of the phones offer this functionality, either as a hack or a 3rd party app?

The 8525 or tytn had a hack that allowed for threaded SMS like the 750v has. It's just like a Palm SMS app. Check out xda-developers.com

I think it was posted there, but then Palm asked them to take it down. However, I think someone posted a link to the files on another website.

Don't know anything about an app for the Blackjack.

Cool - seems like it would work on the 8525 as well!

Edit - looks like it has some "wonkiness" to it. Going to keep looking. Why can't Microsoft just pay Palm for the threaded SMS app license!?

Awesome I like this.

Yeah, after I read more about it, I decided not to use it. The fact that task manager could close it without me knowing threw me off.
