right. just like "if something seems too good to be true, it probably is". i'm still learning about 'free' apps in iTunes. but it seems most apps that charge (even $0.99) could be THAT MUCH better than a free app. and society, in general, operates under an assumption that by spending actual money on an item, they are getting a better quality product than something free.

i'll give IM+ a look-see.

It doesnt display the actual message. Third I had 4 IM sent to me in attempt to be pushed a message while in this app, and none came thru. And this was the only IM app i had connected to my accounts.

Theyre practically identical. I just prefer IM+ because it has Twitter and Skype support. Some like the UI of Beejive better from what I have read, but IM+ added custom background support for the messaging interface so it has options. Theyre both good, but since I support IM+ I always recommend it

And adventages for me, assuming I would mostly use it for MSN?

edit; considering theyre both same price in my appstore and apparently theyre 5 for im+ and 15 for beejive in others i ended up buying beejive and its pretty good.
