For the default Chat application I haven't seen Yahoo yet, and I never understood the difference between AIM and ICQ...

Pidgin has been ported though and is currently *tested* in the "Extras-Testing" repository/catalogue.
Note that software in Extras-Testing IS NOT meant for end-users as software can drain your battery, destroy your data, ...
Wait until Pidgin has reached "Extras" instead after having made sure that it's "safe".

Agreed - though as these questions pop up, we really need to add them into the beginers guides.

Would it be possible to have a sticky at the top of the n900 forum asking people to add the answers they have received to the official wiki, that way we can build up a reliable source of info very quickly..
I have seen a few questions that I have noted and will add to the wiki when I get home tonight..

What does everyone think?

I agree but maybe we could have a thread with popular/frequent FAQs?

Isn't that what the wiki and existing FAQ are for...

It is - and we are now in the position to start seriously filling the FAQ with the questions people are frequently asking (was a bit tough when few people had a device to ask about!)

Please jump into the wiki with any questions - and answers if you've recieved them. Failing that, PM the Q and A to me, and I'll do it.
