Ok so I installed haze today and it worked just fine. Few questions though:
1) When I change my status to "offline" does this mean I signed out or is there another way to sign out so I don't always stay signed in?
2) How do I see the list of my contacts of who is online and who isn't?
3) Would I be better off installing the "butterfly" plug in or downloading aMSN (just uninstalled it yesterday cos it's soooo freakin slow and sooo tiny meaning you need your stylus for everything) or is Haze as good as it gets right now?
4) When the Ovi Store Website says "Coming Soon" does this mean that it's going to have the great list of official apps we have all been waiting for? Things like MSN Messenger, Google Maps, etc... or is it just going to be the apps we already see in the 3 repositorys?
***My wife got her N900 today, customized it and all, and she loves it soo far. She complains though that the available apps in Maemo Select are all a bunch of weird named apps that regular users would never know what the hell any of them are. Many of them are either useless or more for the advanced user who is "linux" smart I guess. I kept telling her to just wait for Ovi Store to open which will be soon. When will it open btw...does anyone know?***
Thanks everyone!

2. They appear in your Contacts, you can even merge them in with your telephone numbers so when you look to SMS or phone someone you will see if they are on messenger too.
3. I was wondering what the difference between Haze and Butterfly is too. They are a different code base presumably but no clue if one is better than the other.
4. No chance for MSN Messenger and unlikely for Google Maps. The Ovi Store is intended for commercial software, but I have not heard of Google showing any interest. Maybe we will be pleasantly surprised though.
5. I agree with your wife even though I am a reasonably experienced Linux user. I seriously dislike the App manager. Its really hard to find applications based on what you want them to do. But then, I think Linux in general has the same problem. You generally need to know the application name as searching through the list is often fruitless.
The N900 App manager seems particularly bad though. Search does not seem to work properly. I will have to start checking out the bug reports but being only on my second day, I am not ready for that yet.

I have searched google and these forums.
I have come across partial bits about using msn on the N900 by 3rd party applications.
Pidgin amsn things like that.
However they are all unhelpful and tell me nothing weather it can be done or just in talk.
My question is, is there anyway I can get into msn through my N900. IF so how do I do this? links to install or get arounds will be useful
Obviously I know about the ebuddy internet version but that defeats the objective!
Thanks in advance!

Try the haze plugin or butterfly plugin, i think they work great, they integrate msn in your contact list. There is also a maemo5 compatible version of pidgin. Mind though that these apps are still in the extra-testing repository so be careful with that.
You can also try amsn, can be downloaded from there website from your phone: http://www.amsn-project.net/maemo-downloads.php

when I set up an account next to icq (which is possible through the haze plugin), I receive network errors when trying to connecnt to icq.. the only method to fix this is to delete all other accounts except for icq an reinstall haze..
anyone has a solution/the same problem?
thank you for replying

All times are GMT. The time now is 00:49.
I have been following this thread and have been excited about the MSN pluggin solution for the N900.
On Saturday I installed the Haze plugin and had MSN working (in my conversations box, with my contacts copied in) fantasic. The Sunday MSN on the phone (through 3g) wouldn't allow me access with the error network problems.
Today is the same. So I thought a test was in order and downloaded Pigin (??) and that to would not allow access to MSN. Does anyone have any idea's? Has T-Mobile stopped my access (it works on the E71, and BTW how long before we all get fed up with that phrase) or is there another problem that I'm missing?
Sorta HELP lol
