Publisher's Description
From SHAPE Services:
Chat for free with other Skype users and call cost-effectively to any landlines and mobiles outside of Wi-Fi zones. Within Wi-Fi spots you can make VoIP calls for free! IM+ Talk is network independent, working in GSM, 3G and CDMA, Wi-Fi is not a necessary requirement. When you are not in Wi-Fi zone, you can still make calls using callback. In this case both the contact person and you will get the incoming call. This is because when you use callback you are actually making two calls: one - to Skype contact or to phone number and another - to your callback number. Both calls are charged according to standard Skype rates, therefore Skype credits or Skype subscription are required for all incoming and outgoing calls in IM+ Talk. Send files, photos and voice messages to your contacts. Redirect an incoming call to your voicemail and listen to the message later. One Time Fee, all updates included.
What's new in this version: Version 4.4 adds multichat support.

"Easy to install, works, but my BB hung"
Version: IM+ Talk for BlackBerry 4.1
Pros
Easy to install and worked right away. Screen is familiar and easy to use
Cons
Skype dial-in dialog box was stuck on my screen, because I answered using my PC. I had to reboot my blackberry. Also, for talking there was a mention of "convenient left button" what is that? no instructions or clarification on what it is.
Summary
Bugs need to be fixed and better instructions. I would have paid the $29 if it was not for that. Also, do I have to use it as a walkie-talkie? Press the button to talk or click on the button to talk..

"im+ talk for Blackberry almost there but not quite"
Version: IM+ Talk for BlackBerry 4.0
Pros
Free calls over wifi using skype out credits equals great savings.
Very clear sound quality. As good as using skype on my pc at home.Cons
When talking online push to talk is required. Very frustrating for the people i spoke to . This isn't the CB radios of the 70's anymore. I have yet spoken to anyone who like push to talk communications.
Summary
I can't recommend it for $29.95. Its present value should be free. Once they fix the push to talk i would gladly pay between $5 to $10 for this.

"Why would I pay for something that should be free??"
Version: IM+ Talk for BlackBerry 3.3.3
Pros
I like that I don't have it on my Blackberry.
Cons
I don't have Skype on my BB but I use it on my iPod Touch, PC, and Mac b/c they're FREE!!! Why in the world would anyone pay $30 for something that should be free?!!
Summary
Skype should be free!! Like Facebook, WeatherChannel, etc. C'mon Blackberry geeks! Blackberry, you have a long way to go.I like my Storm2 but the BB App selection, especially Skype, rots...can't touch iPod/iPhone with a 10' pole. Please catch up to iPod/iPhone!
