At last count there were 4 different ways of logging into a MSN account on the n8*0: RTcom, Pidgin, Fring and Gizmo.

There's threads here on configuring each (especially after the Diablo update broke RTcom for a lot of people), but I was hoping to consolidate some opinion here.

Personally, I haven't decided yet. When I last used Pidgin it didn't seem fully Hildonized - occasionally causing the tablet menus to blank out when switching focus and the interface felt like a desktop app struggling to run on a tablet.

I was pretty pleased to to have MSN support in the default chat client thanks to RTcom, but I encountered an issue when connecting to GTalk and MSN with the same email address, contacts were associated with the wrong account. I'm yet to reinstall it since my latest flash.

As for Fring and Gizmo, I think I'd really embrace them if I had a solid connection anywhere except home. Their MSN functionality isn't anywhere near as extensive as the others and since I don't use VoIP, they're not as suitable.

Anyone else have any experiences?
