I was just wondering, do any of you have problems when using AIM on your phone? When i sign on initially, it works fine,but then after awhile..it says sending error, or network failed, then the people im chatting with, dont receive my IM's nor do i get theirs? it's quite annoying actually? any fixes on this?
another thing, when i set the LED for instant messaging to light up...howcome it only does it initally..then after that..it doenst blink purple anymore..it blinks red?

I too have had network issues with AIM on my Pearl. I don't know what would have triggered the problems. My guess, well, for my case, is that I am in a bad cell zone.

Yeah the thing gives an error once in awhile. That's why OZ sucks and you should really look into 3rd party software for a better IM client. I recommend Yak-On, IM+ or GoogleTalk especially! Keep in mind the OZ uses SMS too! =|
Can't answer that question about the light though......

where do i go to get those 3rd party software? does it work well for you?
what about for aim? cuz most of my friends dont use google talk or whatever, is there one where would could use AIM? I tired Aim express on my blackberry but it wont open the page, says there's some sort of erorr?
yes.. follow the directions, the third post on that link has the proper .rar file link for the .dll files.
once you set it all up on your desktop.. all of your msn or aim contacts will appear on your BB gt client.
There really is nothing to do on your Blackberry. It's all done on your desktop.
ohh okay. i was confused on that.i thoguth i had to do this on the blackberry. so once i set up in desktop, do i just transfer this on my BB, or i'ts jus automatic?
i deleted googl talk earlier cuz i thought it wouldnt work..but now im trying to dload again..but it's givng me a request entity too large error on BB???
