Anybody know of a Sprint phone that has AIM on it?

It's ugly as sin, and doesnt have a QWERTY keyboard, but I may end up getting it if that is my only choice (which I pray it isn't)

I had mine for a couple months now, thought it was pretty good looking

If you still have the 700wx, there are a few options. You said the applications are subpar, maybe try better applications? There are about four that I have tried using.

Free, only does aim, but is very reliable.

IM+ (http://www.shapeservices.com/en/products/details.php?product=im)

I have this one if you wish to try it, tell me where to send it. It isn't the newest version, but it works fine.

OctroTalk (http://www.octro.com/)

Costs, and doesn't seem to be that great for what it is

Agile (http://www.agilemobile.com/)

Up there with IM+, you have to pay for it, but it is a great messenger.

If that doesn't work, you can always use the AIM WAP site at wim.aol.com I believe, but that will use your text messages.

I tried the first one and get a 404 error everytime. Can I try the 2nd one?

He's not talking about phones that you can login to aim and recieve messages. He's talking about the application aim, where you can get on it as if you were on a computer, add people, go through your contacts, see who's online, send/recieve, etc.
On the otherhand I can on my Black Jack. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

so am I...... although the web AIM can send/recieve, add, delete, check contacts etc too. But no I'm talking about the application aim, you can get that on any sprint phone. Just register at http://www.ringerpost.com and you will find what you need. Including the IM+ that vgeek speaks of. And google will help you find another copy of the Win CE AIM... http://ftp.newaol.com/aim-uk/wince/aim.exe

aim on those phones is more of a burden than its worth.

i agree..

I guess you could say I'm cheap, but why would I pay for a knockoff app on my phone when the original intended app is and always has been free?
