    Doubt any kind of IM client would work as 3 have a walled garden setup when it comes to internet access (eg: you can't access the likes og google or boards.ie etc)

    In saying all this...I could be wrong,
    Its a shame really....

    I got to agree, its now become very confusing
    I'd say he ment I was right in that you can't use a IM client

    In the UK you can buy a add-on package that allowsn you to access websites like amazon.co.uk etc, but afaik its restricted to sites of three's choice...which ruins the whole thing imho :(
