that doesnt make sense, talking + downloading is the entire point of umts/hspa

and for those of us that are FULLY clients and have no idea on how to program or anything like that? Lol. I think his question was "will there be other protocols supported?" and I've seen in other threads that, yes, others will be soon.

Other plugins for Maemo 5 IM protocols will be coming either at launch time or soon after from Collabora. All major protocols should be usable.

I've been communicating with a guy that has a N900 prototype and he says that currently it disconnects him every hour from the protocol. well, it "loses connection" which states he's still online but doesn't get any messages nor can he send until he goes to "availability" and "online" again. Do you think this will be fixed? Because having to reconnect every hour? Ouch...

Prototype being the operative word there I feel. When the android g1 came out to start the disconnect issues with IM made that function basically unusable. Since then a software update has considerably improved that. One hopes it is the same with this.

Really? I've had both, G1 and Magic, and instant messaging was completely unreliable and horrible. That's the main reason why I got rid of both. They're unreliable. I hope this one is more reliable. :) But hey, I get a 14 day trial with Nokia. The main reason why I'm getting this phone is because of it's slick UI, powerful specs and it's "always on" mantra.

Improved - not perfected :)

It went from being unusable to being usable with a lot of swearing

See that saddens me. :(. People say that the N8X0 devices work just fine and are fairly reliable. I'm all about leaving my account 24/7 connected. Can you do that with your N8X0 device now? Or do you still get random drops? :)

The N8XX stay connected all the time. My friends think I'm an IM junkie because I always appear online.
