The apps works nicely. I can IM on my Palm Tungsten C. I would like to see the ability to export the converstations or messages to the Memo Pad. Additionally, it would be nice if the app didn't log me out with I switch apps while on a Wi-Fi connection (I could see this being an issue if you were on a celluar call and thought you disconnected. If I was in another app, it would then alert with an alarm dialog and allow me to respond. That would be real cool and useful.

This program is great. It is simple (no frills), it works and does exactly what it says it will. Paolo responded to my one silly question within hours on a Sunday despite the time zone differences and I was up and running shortly thereafter. Keep up the good work Paolo.
