    It could be that this is complete rubbish now, but: Doesn't Jabber (the IM-protocol supported by the Nokia ITs) handle MSN and ICQ via so-called "transports" on the server side? I never tried it and don't know if the client (=N800 in this case) needs to meet any prerequisites, but it could well be that all you have to do is register your existing MSN/ICQ-IDs with the respective transports on your Jabber-server and you'll get all of your Instant Messaging handled via the built-in Jabber client.

    There's also Gaim, a multi-protocol client, that should support those protocols; the download page says nothing about N800/ITOS2007, so it could be Gaim works with the 770 only.

    Yes, Gaim works fine on N800. And yes, you can use the original N800 jabber client to connect to msn. You need a jabber server that provides a gateway to msn network. I think you can find more info from this forum or from jabber homepage.

    The GAIM msn client works perfectly for me on 770 and N800.

    Select jabber server who you trust and check that it supports msn transport. Go to server web page and follow their instructions.
