AIM for Windows 5.0 Palm PC

[cheadberg]

I bought a Palm Pc and was trying yo find out where I can download Aol Instant Messenger? I tried AOL but they have nothing on there. I know you can have it on a Palm PC because I have seen it. Any suggestions?

I've seen some versions but they cost money. I tried for ever trying to find a version of AIM for my Pocket PC but all I found were 3rd party programs that you had to pay for.

Yeah, I've been looking for the same for my MDA for quite some time. No luck.

Google search: aim for pocket pc

I personally use that program, works fine.

Hmmm, my many attempts on Google turned up nothing. Maybe I just lost patience. Thanks.

The download is a broken link. Looks like it no longer exists, and I can tell you exactly why. AIM now has a deal with T-Mobile I know for sure, where AIM comes pre installed, but it costs money every time you use the service. Once they saw that they could make money there, they probably pulled the free one.

Thanks, I'll try that and let you know how it works after I set up my wireless router and use my MDA with it.
