Anyone tried the new app name WhatsApp?
*
dude..perhaps u din read from its page....

NOTE I: WhatsApp DOES NOT use SMS for chat. WhatsApp will use your Wi-Fi connection if Wi-Fi is available. If no Wi-Fi is available, WhatsApp will use your EDGE/3G connection - therefore it is recommended that you have unlimited data plan in order to use WhatsApp.

NOTE II: WhatsApp is currently not available in Mexico, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and India.

yup....
bad thing is...wat for u wanna use one tat onli limit to those who has the same app onli....
and the usage method is...
if there is no wifi, it use ur EDGE/3G, that practically same as u use IM+ or so to connect

@dinozilla,
I don't know about WhatApps but Ping! keeps us connected to the server at all times.  Yes it is onli limited to people with iPhones but my group of friends I hang out with are all using the iPhone hence we usually Ping! one another, EXCEPT for those on the i2G sad.gif

In fact, it's quite a refreshing change.  Speaking of which, I should start using BeejiveIM on my iPhone tongue.gif

Go check out the Ping! thread to find out more information. 
i guess that's the point

this is from PIng! FAQ
QUOTE
Do I need wifi or 3G?

Ping! works with either wifi or 3G(data) in order to send push notifications to your device.  It will also work on EDGE, but will inherently be much slower relative to 3G. 


so excluding the similarity with BBM, u r actually still using the cellular network for the Push
which utilize ur data usage...unless u r on unlimited plan, heavy user can finish off their quota very fast...thats wat stated by WhatsApp as well, reminding u best to have unlimited plan biggrin.gif

if u hav a lot folks who on iPhone and installed Ping!/WhatsApp, that sounds fine, not if u r not, and in that case...using IM+ makes no diff, since ur ultimate purpose is to stay connected with ur pals wink.gif

and indeed, agree to the point...y use so many p2p msg app if they are not inter-connect? stick to the one with the most folks rclxms.gif

@dinozilla,
A Ping! message isn't *that* big lah; no need to be so kiasu; it's not like ur writing a storybook or something.  If you have a data plan, it should be fine; if u don't have then well, it does get v expensive paying; having said that, IM+ or BeeJiveIM also utilises your data services.

Also, there's less spamming on Ping! unlike on IMs tongue.gif
*
i guess tat really up to ur group of pal...whether they own the same device...to access the same thing...
else...its worthless to own an app if u got no one to comm with...

so....its an app to go if u hav a lot of pal with ipod touch or iphone...

but no...if most of ur fren is not iphone/itouch user...

tat make sense? tongue.gif

or you can try to Ping! random people and see if they yield
any returns?

who knows you might find a true love via
Ping!

reminds me of the times in malaysia, where random people
text me to "make friends" (because my number has a good combination)
*
like ICQ time????!!!

no way....old enof to skip those liao... tongue.gif

wont consider Ping! or WhatsApp until frens around has more using iphone...

Can anyone recommend me the best personal finance app ?

Pocket money is doing sale now at $1.99 only. but the feedback for this app so so only.

another one is iXenpenselt, good review for this one but somebody said cant key in income...

anybody using these two app ? sad.gif
*
i using iXpenseIt
using the full version. Very well work....
but not sure why u need to key in income.....
it is actually set budget (or u can treat ur disposable income as total budget if u like)
then record spending and see how much u left from time to time...
personally find its useful, except the budget setting tab is not so friendly to me...the rest works well.

Icic .
Hmm still duno which one to get cause pocket money now is $1.99, even though just $3 different but this will be my first paid app biggrin.gif

anybody tried pocket money before ?
*
i find iXpenseIt more focus on spending (as its name suggests) tongue.gif
covering personal and business

while pocketmoney caters well for personal management
PocketMoney should be good enough if you jz want something to track ur own spending....

i Didn't know PocketMoney existence when i bought iXpenseIt!!!!!

btw...both has lite version if u notice....jz grab them from both to try out....once u satisfy wit 1 of them...
delete the lite versions, and buy the one you decided with....

Happy App-ing biggrin.gif

hahah yea i am waiting haha not really in a rush but certainly will grab it once any of the apps hit 4.99. doubt it will go any lower. Nimbuzz is good, but the push only gives u up to a max of 1 hr.

hahaha omg. buying before christas must have really hurt. haha the price differs alot?

haha i do hope they do sales in cny haha but i have my doubts on that.

tomorrow last day for the uk itunes promo (12 days). not much to shout abt through out the 12 days gifts
*
wat about 4.99 -> 2.99
or 2.99 -> 0.99/Free doh.gif
luckily not a lot app la, jz 1 or 2

i do believe CNY will hav, but probably AppStore in HK/TW/CN/etc may b
Malaysia dunno....
sometimes this promo is initiate by developer, so hav to see...

this app is not good. Lots of stability issue. The other apps, Maxis Movies Booking is better (even though this also is a bit buggy).

nothing is perfect la....
as long as the developer keep trying improving it....then it is better than those which stuck in a version forever....
although keep having bug does damages the reputation.... tongue.gif
