That is unfortunately, especially in light of MS announcement today that the Mango release of Windows Phone will integrate IM and Email into the Threaded messaging.

Even maemo was lacking the email integration in that regard, however, I will surely miss the ease of IM on my trusty N900!

Perhaps ice cream sandwich will incorporate deeper integration.

I am intrigued by the N9/N950 handset but it's going to be a filler product and just won't have the support that Android or even Windows Phone is enjoying.

Thanks for the reply.
