On my PDA (when I IM from it) I use Agile mobile messenger, primarily because it was the first PDA IM app I found that did multi-service chat. I have this installed on the 1Gb memory card instead of the pitiful 3Mb onboard memory.

Today when I fired it up it demanded it be allowed to install an upload. It did this, automatically on the onboard memory, and then informed me that it was a trial program now, and would die in 7 days.

Fuckers.

beta http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/agilemessenger.shtml may still be free

I'm confident, now the main product's out of beta, that any use of the freeware version will produce the same "update now, no alternative" prompt.

However, it's not such a good client that I'm willing to bother finding out whether that's true.

You could ya'know always buy the software if its that useful to you.

Software that installs itself in the wrong place every time it updates? I don't think so...
