How do I set up mobile AIM on my iPhone 3G?

Question

I have the AIM app but I hate that you must be using the app to be using AIM. However I have heard that with mobile AIM I can be on 24/7. I am having trouble setting it up...

Answer 1

thats not true, you have to be using it to receive messages, the rumor is  you can after apple released the next update 2.1.0 but i heard thy pulled the feature because it was too much of a drain on the battery.

Answer 2

You can't recieve AIM messages while not using the application, as you can only run one app at a time.

Note-If Apple wouldn't buy walmart's generic batteries, and a $1 mother board, we wouldn't have the problem of only one app at a time. Apple is so cheap.
