There is no dearth of IM clients for Symbian powered Nokia handsets. I for one swear by the Nimbuzz all in one IM client. Nokia Beta Labs has now introduced their own IM client which is only available for Nokia E75 for the time being. It is open to useless debate why is the world they launched it only for Nokia E75 but the company claims that support will be extended to other Nokia mobile phones as well.

If you try the application you’d know that it’s only a half baked product as you can only talk to your friends on  the Yahoo! Messenger and Ovi communities. I don’t have friends or use either of them which means this applications is pretty useless for me.

Some of the better features of the Nokia IM application is that it provides quick navigation to different conversations and you can also save your conversations. You might be also interested to know that Nokia might also charge for this application sometime in future. This is actually reason enough for me to stay away from this application. Nokia E75 users however will get lifetime subscription to the Nokia Messaging service.
