Theres an app for that!

I was in the same boat as at yesterday when i got the phone, but decided to plunge into the extra repos that dont show up in the n900,

1st of all you shld know that the enabling of extra repos can seriously damage ur new N900....

having said that, the rest in in your hands, .....just enable the extra dev testing repo on ur phone the get haze from there under the multimedia I think, then disable it
it works fine for me on both yahoo & msn..
heres a link to help with that!

That's with just the built-in Conversations software, plus a few, small, free plug-ins from Extras. I'm not restricted to one active account per service either.

I actually have accounts on most of those services configured and active on my N900 all the time. It just works.
Can you comment on battery life with all these protocols always-on simultaneously?

Cheers

I'm using 6 different protocols, and it isn't any noticeable difference than with them offline. I am getting 4 hrs of heavy usage per charge. I'm a pretty extreme user, always connected to WiFi and SIP, Power saving off, and constantly web browsing, chatting, emailing, Tweeting, managing my MySpace and Facebook profiles and contacts, and taking and sharing the occasional image. I'm satisfied, since I usually bring the average device's battery to its knees. It could use a better battery, nonetheless.

Okay, I used both Butterfly and Haze (I even have the Pidgin standalone app). Haze is able to import all the MSN contacts (I have like 800), while Butterfly can't.

Overall I'm pleased with Haze. Is Videocall functionality coming soon/??

Like christexaport, I don't notice a difference in battery life between days when I have all the accounts online and days when I accidentally leave them offline.

Okay, cheers for the confirmation. I wasn't sure that it would really make that much of a difference, but a couple people thought otherwise.

On a side note, how many contacts do you have? Maybe this could detrimentally affect battery life.

Could be. I don't have that many IM contacts, about 95 total.

Installing items from there can cause serious trouble, enough to delete data or require reflashing the phone. I only installed account-plugin-haze from there and disabled Extras-devel immediately aferward. I accepted the risk, but please think carefully before doing the same.
