Instant Message question

[DaBoz]

Hi all... I've had my iPhone 3gs for one week now. Love it! Had a BB Curve prior. My wife still has a company issued BB. BB messenger was awesome for us to keep up a conversation all day. The company she works for frowns on them sending text messages.

So the question is what app will easily allow us to send IM's back and forth as before (now between iPhone and BB) without having to resort to text's.

I've used the search function and it just doesn't seem clear.

TIA

Any IM app that you can get on both phones...AIM, Yahoo, etc. Maybe one that combines them all like Beejive, but that costs money for the app. Check the App Store and then see what she can DL onto her BB.

Like was said previously, Meebo is free with iPhone and if she can use Gtalk with her company issued BB then that is what I would do. My brother is a big GMail user and he uses the BB 9700. We do not text each other. We usually IM each other on Gtalk. My iPhone to his BB. Works great and is free!

Meebo (free) works great on iPhone! Not sure about BlackBerry but am sure you can use the browser version of Meebo there.

Definitely love Meebo. I've been waiting for their native iPhone app and they did not disappoint...
