I donwloaded aMSN and it has waaaay too many bugs right now. For example: the scroll does not work, there is a huge lag between pressing and something happening, it stops the media player widget from working, you cannot turn off alerts when ppl come online, it slows the N900 to a crawl and causes malfunctions....it's kinda not worth downloading it.
Also...I don't understand the procedure for downloading telepathy haze/butterfly. I downloaded the extras-testing file, but then my phone asks what program to use to open it. I don't know what to use, and everything I tried didn't work. Can someone tell me what to do?

I would like to start out by thanking Chris for his help in getting me into AIM on my n900. Here is an easy to use set of directions that worked for me and without any unforseen issues - yet.
Disclaimer: This involves using Maemo Extras Dev. This can brick you n900. Follow at your own risk
You have to go to your Application Manager. If you haven't already, enable the Extras, Extras-testing, and Extras-devel repositories. I don't normally advise this, but I can't remember which repository it is in. Once you enable them, go to "ALL" and select the application titled "account-plugin-haze". This will add support for AIM, GaduGadu, Groupwise, ICQ, MSN, QQ, SameTime, and Yahoo.
Once you install this plugin, select the menu bar along the top and select "Application Catalogs". Next add the catalog Extras-devel.
1. Click the button "new"
2. Create catalog name "Maemo Development"
3. Web Address "http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/
4. Distribution "Fremantle"
5. Components "free non-free"
6. Close out of the menu
Next at the application manger menu select "download" and go on to install the "account-plugin-haze" plugin. Now before you do anything else return to Application Catalogs screen, select Select Extras-devel and disable them via the options and select "Maemo Development" and DISABLE the catalog by selecting the checkbox at the bottom. Now return to the home screen and Then, click the status bar where the clock and battery indicator are, and select "Availability".
Scroll to the bottom and press "Accounts", select the "New" button on the right, and enter your details. And that's it!
Again... This can brick you n900. Follow at your own risk
