wasn't there something like http://mm.yahoo.com ? earlier on? I remember using that on my T300. Does it still work?

It really seems that nobody actually need yahoo on their k700i. That link has not been working for ages now, my friend ...

Basically, as presented on the SE site, K700i has no IM features. Damn!

Lucky me. I can use the My Friends feature of my K700i to chat with my yahoo friends, and possibly with msn and icq users. Just like an IM

Are you sure you can do that? I mean I can also connect to the yamigo server, and if I have set up someone as a contact, it will show me its presence, but if they send me a message (and I do not send them one before) I will not receive it for 12 minutes. I am not sure if you can call this Instant.

Of course each time your phone talks to the server, it also brings down the messages you received, so you can have a small conversation, but only if you are talking more than your friend is.

Also, if you leave my friends, and say go browsing, and one of your friends contacts you, then you won't know for about 12 minutes that's what I was talking about.

All SE phones have this 12 minutes lag. It seems it cannot be changed. Motorala's lag is only 30 seconds! and Nokias have around 3 minutes (which is still accetable).

Yahoo Messenger wap sites (still working):
1) http://mm.yahoo.com/?Referer=other --> this is what i call the "main" YM wap site. Supports adding of Yahoo friends; supports some smileys (though black and white only).

2) http://uk.mm.yahoo.com/#i --> the UK version of Yahoo Messenger. A bit less user-friendly than YM WAP's main site.

About cMessenger: I don't believe that cMessenger's midlet or server are flawed because I use it to chat everyday; the sending and receiving of messages are almost as fast as on a pc, i.e., it takes only seconds, provided that you have decent gprs signal.

About K700i having no IM capability: I have to disagree. There's the built-in IMPS, and on top of that, you can install 3rd-party chat midlets like cMessenger. My "lowly"7250i, with "only" class 4 gprs, can do this, so why not a K700i.

About SE phones being "slow" in handling IM: Not true! I have chatted on YM's wap site using a P900, and it was lightning-fast!

Dude it's clear that you either never saw / read about k700i, or your IQ level has as many digits as George Bush's one.

I never said that K700i does not have IMPS capabilities, read my post dude! I said that the polling time is 12 minutes, confirmed by SE officials, and yamigo staff.

Also, next time you give links that you say are valid, check them yourself. Those links DO NOT WORK.

Cmessenger does not work using WAP APN. It works using APN internet (quite badly also) which is expensive. In my country (Romania) WAP APN unlimited is 4 usd / month, but internet APN is 2 USD / Mb. I make around 20 Mb traffic on the mobile monthly, so you make the computations.

Next time, before posting, be sure that you have read all the posts, and you know what you are talking about
