OctroTalk Instant Messenger for Windows Mobile Works with Google Talk

If you would like to IM with friends using Google Talk from a Windows Mobile Pocket PC or Smartphone, you might want to take a look at…

OctroTalk

It is currently in beta-release and free for testing (the current release expires in October if I recall correctly). I tested on a TyTn Pocket PC Phone Edition running Windows Mobile 6. It worked fine IMing to Google Talk. Since Google Talk is based on the protocol developed for Jabber, it should work fine with Jabber as well as its transport gateway.

    This can happen if you are signed with same user name from two devices.

    “The current WM version of OctroTalk has no known problem.”

    While there’s no problem with the software on the mobile device itself, it has rendered Gmail chat and Gmail links useless after one click-through on a PC.

    The current trial version v1.19 will not expire even if its past the expiration date till the pricing is decided, which will be only after Symbian and J2ME versions are released and tested. The current WM version of OctroTalk has no known problem. For support write to
