There's a few apps like this. I'd like to know how they compare. I'm trying Pinger Phone right now.

The link above goes to Nimbuzz

The app the OP is referring to is 'Nimbuzz'. [App Store (http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=297574648&mt=8)],

I tried that app.
Don't really like it, it keeps you signed in even when you're not in a Wi-Fi or cellular service area and if you get an IM when you're not it sends it to your phone and I can't reply.
Palringo is a lot better, along with Fring.
Truphone is really nice along with PingerPhone (soon to get phone features for iPod touch).

if you're not in a wi-fi area, how does it keep you signed in? doesn't it just drop out because it can't connect to the internet?

Looks like crap. Nothing compares to beejive.

Hasn't this been out for quite a while ? I have it, it's not bad, but I use Palringo the most.

No. Also with this app you can configure your Skype account.

I don't know.
But I've gotten numerous text from when I wasn't in a Wi-Fi area and one time I was on my friends computer and she was signed in on AIM and it said I was on.
