Ovi Chat
 
Does anyone use Ovi Chat?

Is there a software you can use on PC like yahoo messanger or msn or is it just for Nokia phones?

More importantly how do you add people to your Ovi Chat? Do you have to ask everyone you know if they have a Nokia phone and what their Ovi Chat name is or is there a way to make it work in a sensible way like msn, yahoo, skype, etc where you can enter your email addresses and it will search for people you know that are registered for the service? If there is no way to find out someone's Ovi Chat name without asking them if they have a Nokia and if they have Ovi Chat then it seems to me like hardly anyone is ever going to use the service.

PS I think Nokia missed a huge opportunity. If they had implemented Ovi Chat properly then the millions who are buying blackberrys simply for Blackberry IM would have been getting Nokias instead. I mean if you are not a corporate user what are the chances you would rather have a boring blackberry device than an N97 mini or X6.
