<p>On Sunday <a href="http://www.imore.com/2010/10/10/yahoo-messenger-app-add-3g-video-chat/">we told you</a> that Yahoo! sent in their update to Apple for the Messenger app to allow for 3G video calling &#8212; well today the update is live in the iTunes App Store.</p>

<p>Not only will you now be able to better communicate with others Yahoo! Messenger users on iPhones but you will be able to chat with anyone who has a front facing camera on their phones. Even bigger news than that is the ability to video chat between a phone and the computer version of Yahoo! Messenger. This brings a whole new potential to having the iPhone 4 as well as any smartphone with a front facing camera.</p>

<p>Will you be downloading the newest update to this app? Does the potential for phone to computer video chat excite you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!</p>

<p>Earlier this week the VP of Yahoo! Mobile in America, David Katz, let slip that Yahoo! will soon be supporting video chat on their mobile apps, including iPhone. A Yahoo Spokesperson has said that he believes:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>the iPhone app has already been approved by Apple and that it would be would be available “soon.”</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The advantage of Yahoo video calling as opposed to Apple&#8217;s built-in <a href="http://www.imore.com/tag/facetime/">FaceTime</a> is that the user will not only be able make video calls with iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4. but with Android devices, Mac and Windows PCs, and anything else Yahoo supports.  Yahoo&#8217;s app  will also not be restricted to just Wi-Fi like FaceTime, and will be able to be used via 3G/4G.</p>

<p>Apple used open standards to make FaceTime and has said they&#8217;re releasing FaceTime back as an open standard itself, but since it seems to be taking a while, are you interested in Yahoo! as a FaceTime alternative? Do you think Yahoo will do it right?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.imore.com/images/stories/2008/09/picture-28.png" alt="Picture 2.png" border="0" width="319" height="460" class="aligncenter" /></p>

<p>If you&#8217;re an IM-hound, it&#8217;s time for you to head over to iTunes and lay down $15.99 for <a href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=291720439&#038;mt=8">BeejiveIM</a>.  The multi-client software can handle AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Google Talk, MySpace, ICQ, and Jabber all in one little app.  The whole services works via Beejive&#8217;s own servers which allows them to include a couple of neat features.  The first &#8212; they&#8217;ll cache your messages so if you go out of service or quit the app your messages will be waiting when you return.  The second &#8212; if you have an Exchange or MobileMe account, you can punch in your email address in the preferences and Beejive will shoot you a quick email letting you know that you&#8217;ve just received a message.  Nice.  Hopefully that feature will be unnecessary once Apple offers push notifications, but in the meantime it&#8217;s a clever stopgap solution.</p>

<p>The only real downside is that the price, $15.99, doesn&#8217;t really seem in line with the current $9.99 default price on a lot of apps.  I&#8217;m of two minds on this issue. Come read the pros and cons with us after the break!</p>

<p><span id="more-4651"></span></p>

<p>On the one hand, $15.99 really is a fair price to pay for an application of this quality, especially since Beejive is incurring costs on their end by maintaining a server.  Server-proxy-type IM apps in the past have often been based on a subscription model, so at least we&#8217;re not looking at that.  The price is also more in line with what apps tend to cost on other mobile platforms.  Given all that, $15.99 seems more than fair.</p>

<p>On the other hand, it&#8217;s not like App developers who manage to crack the top tiers of apps (which I expect BeejiveIM to do) are exactly hurting for cash when they sell apps at the $9.99 level.  Not to mention that, as I said above, $9.99 is the &#8216;default price&#8217; right now in the App Store, so going above it will ruffle some feathers &#8212; just take a look at what <a href="http://forum.theiphoneblog.com/iphone-native-apps/167132-beejive-im-released.html">Ruben had to say in our forums</a> to see what I mean.</p>

<p>If nothing else, it will be interesting to see whether or not the mindshare effect of all those other apps clocking in at $9.99 will eventually drive BeejiveIM&#8217;s price downward, or if Beejive is a harbinger of $10+ prices to come.</p>

<p>How about you?  $15.99 seem fair?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href='http://www.imore.com/images/stories/2008/07/picture-117.png'><img src="http://www.imore.com/images/stories/2008/07/picture-117.png" alt="" title="picture-117" width="277" height="400" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3544" /></a></p>

<p>Folks who&#8217;ve transitioned over from Windows Mobile (or BlackBerry) to the iPhone (or folks who, like me, are dual-wielding) take heed: one of our favorite IM apps from those other platforms has finally made its way into the App Store.  It&#8217;s Palringo (<a href="http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=286274367&#038;mt=8">iTunes Link</a>) and it&#8217;s <em>free</em>.  Palringo is an instant messenger app that&#8217;s able to talk to AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Google Talk, etc.  It will also let you send media files (like photos).  There is one downside &#8212; you do need to set up a Palringo account to get it all going, but for now at least, if you want multi-client IM, Palringo&#8217;s your best option.</p>

<p>That&#8217;s good stuff, but the better stuff is coming: Palringo&#8217;s custom &#8216;Vocal IM,&#8217; which is somewhere between sending audio files and VOIP chat.  We&#8217;re also hoping that Palringo will be able to add background notifications when the iPhone supports it.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m downloading now, but I tell ya, I&#8217;m excited for this app.  Seems like an <a href="http://www.imore.com/2008/07/16/iphone-app-lightning-reviews-get-discounts-at-the-iphone-blog-store/">excellent idea for a lightning review</a>, don&#8217;t it?</p>
