There are jabber clients for virtually every mobile platform, and every computing platform.
IMHO the idea is not to try to convince everyone to switch to jabber based apps, i have over 700 contacts on my phone and approx. 90% of them use either Blackberry, iphone motorola or Nokia symbian, can you imagine me trying to convince them all to switch from whatsapp, cnectd or bbm just to accommodate me and my maemo device? If i were them i would be trying me to get with the program.
