[...] by KickApps to potential customers who see the things that other Web 2.0 companies – like Facebook, Meebo, and Netvibes – are doing with the iPhone and want in on the action. As the first white label [...]

There have been solutions out there for Treos that kept persistent connection to the IM session even when other applications are running. Perhaps something can be done on the server side to remove this hurdle.

I agree with another poster and I said this in the last message you guys wrote about the limitations of FlickIM:

BeeJive has a fantastic client for AIM. Both FlickIM and BeeJive solve the problems of being logged out when taking a call. This isn’t a problem with the iPhone as your story reports, it’s a problem with developers not developing for the iPhone. Unlike FlickIM, BeeJive supports all the major clients like Meebo does. But from the sound of it BeeJive is still better than Meebo.

How come every review of iPhone apps emphasize how good they look, when invariably the usage leaves something to be desired? I know everything looks better through Apple-colored glasses, but there seems to be a desperation to write something good about iPhone apps when every review I read actually reduces my desire for an iPhone.

That said, I think a lot of the dev hype around the iPhone is directly attributable to the lack of mobile Flash to allow good apps to be written with existing skillsets for a wider range of phones.

It’s great to see that Arrington is friends with one of the founders of Meebo. There’s never any conflict of interest on TechCrunch.

Meebo looks great on the iPhone, almost like the site was specifically built with the iPhone in mind. Definately worth trying.

Are you really friends with Gary Busey? Could you do a talkcrunch interview with him and ask him about things?

a brilliant iPhone “app” – really an iPhone version of a website – was developed 3 weeks after the iPhone came out by jambase, a live music fan site and tour date database. check it out at http://www.jambase.com/iphone – whether you have an iPhone or not or whether you are interested in the content or not, you should be able to appreciate the innovation (of course you will appreciate it 100x more if you have an iPhone).

This application works fine on my Blackberry Pearl with the Opera 4.1 mini (beta) browser …. yes it even looks nice on my nice little screen.

I think it’s time to start branding these Mobile RIA’s …

Until the mobile IM clients supported notifications they are quite limited to me. When you browse away from the tab, there’s no way to know whether you are missing a message …

“Mundu works well, although they may charge for it at some point.”

Got a source/reference/citation for that, or are you just assuming that? Have you checked with them?

Because I don’t see any reference to charging anywhere on their site, other then for their in-device products (which are a completely different ballgame). In fact, the only reference to charging appears to be on (hold your breath, here it comes) TechCrunch!

What stops any the others, like Meebo, BeeJive, eBuddy, etc., from charging at some point? The fear of being “TechCrunched”?

Why is TechCrunch so anti-revenues anyway?

“Why all this attention by developers on the iPhone?”

Because the valley is an echo chamber.

Adium for the iPhone. and mobile Adium in general is what we all need. Adium rocks and I’d like to be able to use that on my phone. Yeah, Skype is still going to be a separate thing, but one step at a time, eh?

You should really give the following application a try. I think it’s still far superior to all the iPhone IM applications out there.

@15…. I don’t have time to correct the whole thing. Life is short.
I’m speeding up my life. I have to work three jobs. My eyes or brain is playing too much tricks.

Have you heard of dyslexia?

If you suggest a “Teach Yourself English” book. There’s no way you can fix me. If I read whole book I could end up getting writer’s block.

I could have higher business IQ, programming skills, etc… than one.
