Tell her on your phone, you can be on jabber, yahoo IM, AIM, Skype and Facebook all that *at the same time*. If WhatApp can't cross connect to even ONE other service, then it's the limiter, not your phone.

Sorry, but some apps are very device specific and very closed. If you wanted to use AIM for the first 3 years it was running, it was available for Windows only. I don't see that as Windows being great or other OSes being inferior. I see that as a very lazy developer who wrote an app for one device and didn't feel like porting it.

If you're that concerned about it, setup an OpenFire XMPP server and configure her phone and yours to chat via that. Of download an app for her device that can chat on another free service. Oh, wait... her app would be suspended because she's running Android, so she can't really have two IM apps running at the same time like the N900 can...

Sucks...

Re: whatsapp type application for N900

Well if Whatsapp worked properly on NITDroid then it would not be much of a trouble for everyone who wants it on Maemo...

Re: whatsapp type application for N900

Hi everyone.

I can confirm that LiveProfile is targeting the Maemo / Meego platform since I'm one of the ones developing it :D

I also own an N900 so it will be properly tested, I assure you.

We're aiming to release both Maemo / Symbian^3 as they're both done in Qt (essentially the same codebase).

Please feel free to post any questions regarding the app and I'll be able to reply accordingly (should I make a thread?).

Thank you!

PS: I just registered but I've been lurking the forums for a long time, I'd like to offer my thanks to the community for the excellent and up to date content.

@deleet

Only question I have right now is, when will it be released.
As we are an N900 user, we don't mind using alpha/beta stage apps.
Actually we prefer that than to wait a lot longer for the final version. =)

Re: whatsapp type application for N900

anxiously waiting for this. bf is on android and we're currently using gtalk but we find it lacking...

Re: whatsapp type application for N900

@jakiman

Alphas will be made available as soon as I have login, contacts and chat functional.

I may post some photos of my development versions in the meantime (maybe Monday). I think I'll create a new thread then in order to keep this organized.
