RIM is on an updating roll bringing all the IM clients to 2.5 with some new features. Apart from being OS 5.0-compatible, the new clients feature deeper integration with BlackBerry address book contacts, conversation search function, and better emoticon selection.
There is also a new feature that allows you to save a favorite contact as a home screen icon for even faster navigation.

After encountering a half-zillion different IM clients the other week, we thought it might be prudent to throw them all in the ring together and see how they compare.

Among the multi-platform apps, we have Palringo, IM+, Mundu, Instango, JiveTalk, and WebMessenger.
AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ and Microsoft Live Messenger are also options if you’re packing a supported device.
