AIM Beta 2.0 – popular IM client for Windows Mobile

AIM users will be happy to hear that mobile AIM has hit version 2.0. There are many IM clients available for Windows Mobile, but this one is actually released by the good folks at AOL. Those who don’t need all the extra clients, like many other bloated IM apps offer, will probably find a dedicated AIM app quite useful.

With some of the other IM clients, I’m often disappointed when I realize that they list mobile users as regular users. AIM 2.0 uses special indicators to distinguish mobile, idle and active users from each other. This eliminates any confusion when starting a conversation with someone. With AIM for Windows Mobile, you’re able to send messages, manage your buddy list, change your conversation style, update your status and more.

New in version 2.0:

Lifestream!
- Get AIM activities like status updates.
- Got friends on other networks? Add your Facebook or Twitter services and never miss an update. Start syncing to your accounts by going to lifestream.aim.com and update your settings.
- You can add your YouTube or Delicious accounts too.
- Leave a comment, like an item. Obviously, if your friends don’t have the beta they won’t know about the Lifestream so if you want to try out commenting back and forth with someone make sure they have the beta too.
- Read comments made by your friends. Obviously, if your friends don’t have the beta, they won’t know about the Lifestream. Comments can be made on the desktop AIM beta client or at lifestream.aim.com.

Me tab
- The “Me” tab is a companion to the Lifestream that lets you know when people leave you comments or “like” your updates.

Bug fixes
- Minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
