Hmmm if you need to wait for an admin then that means the server isn't well configured but that's another matter.

I must say I never had much of a problem with those. But then I consider ICQ/MSN/Y! etc... support secondary. IRC is my prefrred way(through ssh+dtach+irssi) then Jabber

And the main reason for getting a N900 for me is the ability to be online with jabber all the time. Then I will hardly need a phone anymore.
