Now you can have access to your Buddy List at anytime from anywhere via your Palm. You can send and receive Instant Messages quickly and conveniently allowing you to be in contact when you need to be.
Some of the main features of AOL IM for the Palm are:
* Send Instant Messages
* Communicate "instantly" with family and friends - wherever you are.
* Exchange important information with colleagues as quickly as if you were standing next to them.
* Access your personalised Buddy List
* Switch between as many as 20 simultaneous Instant Messaging sessions.
* Set your Privacy Preferences to suit your needs. You have the ability to block Screen Names from seeing you online and from sending you an Instant Message.
* There is a Buddy status icon which indicates Buddies arriving, leaving and active Instant Message sessions.
* There are predefined sounds to indicate when your Buddies arrive or leave and when you receive an incoming message.
* Enjoy the use of smilies and use the Palm's built in shortcuts for "canned" messages.
Note: MANY users report limited (or no) success using this OUTDATED free version with a Treo 600/650. USE EXTREME CAUTION USING THIS SOFTWARE, as it is NOT optimized for PalmOS 5+ and CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PROBLEMS. For newer commercial versions, see the AOL Mobile site, as well as other products in this Instant Messaging category.
