JiveTalk IM for BlackBerry goes Open Beta

JiveTalk is an instant messaging client for the BlackBerry that is head and shoulders above the competition. It provides data-based (as opposed to SMS based) instant message access that is fully functional. I’ve been using it for about a month now in closed testing, and it’s awesome.

You can download it over the air from www.beejive.com.
