AFAIK: Pidgin and RTCOM are text chat only while fring adds Voice chat. Nimbuzz gives even more cool stuff (Buzz, voice message... etc)

RTCOMM allows voice chat with GTalk and SIP, I have not tested other protocols. I assume Pidgin on the tablet would work the same since RTCOMM uses the same repos.

From what I've read in the user manual for Fring, there is only text chat available for AIM, Twitter, and Yahoo. I did not install this program, so I cannot be sure (manual could be outdated).

Also, for those having difficulties with their N800, the manual lists the N810 under system requirements, which could mean the N800 was overlooked when writing the manual, or they do not support the N800 yet with this software.
