Palringo brings rich messaging service to BlackBerry smartphones
Palringo, a messaging service that extends to mobile devices all the functionality of PC-based instant messaging services, has released its software client for BlackBerry smartphones.
BlackBerry users can now chat using voice and picture messages as well as traditional text. Further, they can do so with other users of eight popular PC-based IM services (including AOL's AIM, Windows Live Messenger and Google Talk) through one interface. Equally importantly, they can do so whether sitting at a computer, tapping with a smartphone or Pocket PC stylus, or using a Blackberry.
Palringo combines a user's contacts from all services into a single, presence-aware list, eliminating the need to continually switch between multiple IM tools. In addition, Palringo offers walkie-talkie style vocal instant messaging, the real-time text functionality of IM, and the ability to share pictures - all within the context of one ‘threaded' discussion.
