Like announced below, we just released a brand new PSP version. It also works with Sony’s newly released PSP Slim. Since you can hookup the Slim to a TV, you can now also chat on your TV screen from the couch at home!

The Slim seems to be selling very well, according to PSP World, part of the GameFlavor Network, sales are up 400% since it has been available! We finally managed to get one here at the office today Availability here in Amsterdam shops hasn’t been too good… Many of you guys already have it?

As we are aiming to phase out our legacy web IM products and replace them with our new Multi-Network client, we are steadily piling on the new features. Aims for the past iteration have been, as the title suggests, Drag & Drop and Group Management.

Group Management

Quite simply we have implemented the ability to add and remove groups to your contact list. Although this may seem very simple this took quite a bit of thought and work. You can put contacts from any account in a group you create, so you can finally have all your friends from all networks in a single group.

Drag & Drop

As an obvious companion to being able to add and remove groups we added the functionality to “Drag” contacts to a group and “Drop” them there. Again not a trivial addendum to the already extensive codebase, but we feel we have hit the nail right on the head, and hope you will all enjoy the ability to move your contacts around at will

Enough yapping, time for you to log in and get Dragging and Dropping!

Every month we are seeing more and more users chatting with our Mobile Internet version on a Playstation Portable. Therefore, we decided to develop a brand new version, specially designed for the PSP…… and we just released it!

You can use the PSP version to chat with all your MSN / AIM / Yahoo! / Google Talk buddies, in one single buddy list. It has full emoticon support and is available in English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Magyar, Italiano, Arabic, Nederlands, Português and Pt. Brasileiro. More translations will be added soon.
