*Edit* – Actually I checked and apparently I lied lol… Palringo allows you to send voice/pictures and nimbuzz allows you to send emails to your friends emails and also allows you to make free calls via wi-fi threw the app either by your cell phone contact list (which is available right in the app), using your VoIP account or skypeout… I have yet to use the call feature, but I imagine it works fine I don’t see why not

I use nimbuzz/palringo… More so, nimbuzz because of the landscape mode and the fact that you can add your facebook account and have all your buddies that are online available to chat with without actually signing on facebook… But palringo is good because it keeps you online for a little while after you close the app and sends the messages that are sent to you to your email so you don’t miss anything… Both apps also allow you to record voice as well… I don’t think I’ll ever pay for msn app, especially 15.00+ (beejive) maybe a few dollars but definitely not that much

I agree with the hesitation in dropping $5-20 for some of the premiere apps, with no chance of getting a trial to test it out. Lots of developers create free app and paid apps for people to try, so the idea is out there. Thanks for reading the review and chiming in BTW!

Don’t get me wrong, I love the ideas (I just wish the App Store had some way to try apps, especially the expensive ones like Agile). At any rate, I’m quite thankful for this article because I found BeeJive. I figured it would be worth it because many users went our of their way to post glowing comments about it. They were right, it is definitely a great app. The UI is awesome! The speed is amazing (seriously, it loads faster than my desktop client). And, if I turn off my phone or go into another program, it’s still taking responses and I can jump back into the conversation like nothing ever happened. So, for that, I am quite thankful for this review.

If I see an app that I think is worth sharing, I post about it. I don’t like to post about useless apps. And also, the screenshots I post are always taken from my iPhone 3G, not the press release screens you always see.

You know what they say, you can’t please everyone right?

You’re right, you should always thoroughly try something before commenting. I’ve used Agile in the past and reinstalled it this morning prior to my post to see if it had improved… It hadn’t. Compared to the others it’s slow and clunky. And by slow I mean it takes 3 to 5 times longer to load my buddy list. Its UI is also clunky compared to the rest. This is kinda like recommending the Bolt full-screen browser which was by a long shot the worst full-screen browser out there (well, unless you just intended to use it for one type if site… And yes, I know it was Gary who recommended it, not you). Anyway, I do appreciate your work, but sometimes I’m left puzzled…
