A couple of quick questions..

I can't change my custom away message (status), even though it says to tap your screen name at the top of the buddy list.

Can you read people's away messages with this phone, if so how?

When i get a new IM, i get sent a website browser in the notification along with the the person's screen name who IMed me, but when i click the link, it never loads up and shows an error, anyway to fix this or anything?

any recommendations for an Instant Messenger for AIM?

ebuddy - works fine but seems to drain alot of power and disconnects from time to time. a little problem, but not that big but when you change your away messages it adds something to the end of it like "is using ebuddy.com ebuddy android" can be annoying.

meebo - haven't tried yet

Built in AIM browser - can't read away messages of others, can't make a custom away message (only has options of online,away,hide).

is there any others worth trying?

Meebo has great reviews.

any other apps?

does anyone know how to disable the auto msg ebuddy puts in at the end when you make your own custom away msg? and is there a way to read the full away msg of people on your BL, it cuts it off after about two lines..
