AIM for Blackberry is available, but when I try and download it says not supported by my carrier

To see what I'm talking about, try the download from the Browser on your Blackberry

Here is the press release from RIM about AIM... from 2 years ago...

Because offering services like this will hurt at&t's bottom line.

There was a good article a few days ago in the WSJ that was talking about how RIM has been trying to bundle all of these free apps/services into their Blackberry's, but, the carriers, (mainly at&t) keep stonewalling them.
