Well it is possible to get working MSN by now. I doubt Microsoft has any intentions on releasing a full fledged MSN application on a competing device. As far as I know there does not exist an official MSN app for any linux device, desktop or mobile.

Sorry, but you bought an open linux phone. Feel free to use what ever you want - one of the best features of the N900. If you want to use only preinstalled or "official" software you bought the wrong phone?!

one of the reasons that i bought nokia and not other brand is that i want to use only Linux and its applications
i found pidgin very good and i am satisfy except the smiles that they are small and is hard to select them. I would prefere the smiles of sms
is it possible to install other Linux msn clients as kopete or kmess ?

how are the MSN protocol plugins for conversations app flawed ? (I don't really use "MSN", the plugins work really well for connecting with the people who refuse to see the light of sane and open protocols like Jabber [GTalk is actually Jabber]).
My main problem with MSN as a whole is that the procol is very data hungry which makes it power-hungry as well (If I keep only Jabber accounts [2] online vs Jabber plus MSN I get significantly longer battery life).
The plugins are available in the default repo, as for using only "official" apps, definitely wrong platform...
Edit: just a note I use Adium on my desktop/laptop (again it has more than enough of MSN support for my humble needs).
Edit2: Someone might make "official" (as in OVI-repo, probably paid-for since the OVI QA costs money) MSN client but I doubt it since the free alternatives available directly in the enabled-by-default extras repo are enough for almost everyone. (OTOH I've come to understand that all kind of inane crap for the iPhone sells like the proverbial hot cakes so maybe I just don't have any business-sense)
