Hey,
What do you guys use and what is the most reliable?
I used Meebo but I was getting disconnected like every 10 minutes.
I'm also using Jivetalk.. although I'm not getting disconnected as often, I don't think I'm getting all the messages people are sending me.

I have a few questions:

- Is it possible to keep one of the Mobile IM services online, so I could put it to sleep, surf another website, or watch a movie without getting disconnected?

- On Jivetalk, I kept AIM on my computer as well is the ipod touch.. usually when AIM is connected to two computeres on the same screen name, both get all the messages. When doing this with one comptuer and my touch, it seemed like only some were going to the computer and some were going to the touch. Other times, it will go to both.. (this only happens on Jivetalk. The little time I stay connected to Meebo, it works the way 2 computers do)

FlickIM has a terrible interface. Beejive is far superior.
 
Meebo has a personalized setting for the iphone. It works well.
 
iphone.beejive.com is far superior to flick IM. Bee jive shows you away messages and the interface is much better
