IM app that BB and Iphone users can use to communicate

[Gamer]

As the subject says. Anyone know of an app that can be used on BB and iPhone to enable users of each device to communicate with each other. BB through BIS and iPhone through normal data?

Thanks

err it's more like a $1/year

Free for an initial trial period - between a month and 3

It's a pretty awesome application. I've been using the beta on Android for a few days now and wouldn't have minded paying the fee, I would have already saved money.

Exactly the reason I'm promoting it here

It's saved me soooo much cash so far - and its a really good system that doesn't use much battery power

It kills the battery on my iphone 3g, 2 hrs of whats app can take my fully charged phone to flat

I love how iphone users gloat about their 200 000 available apps and yet they don't have Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo Messenger, ICQ, MSN, or a BBM equivalent when all of this comes standard with Blackberry.

I can see you did your homework
Google talk - http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2008/07/google-talk-for-iphone.html
AIM and ICQ - http://daol.aol.com/software/iphone
Yahoo Messenger - http://messenger.yahoo.com/platform/iphone/
MSN - http://iphone-msn.com/

And lets not forget the all encompassing FRING!!! - http://www.fring.com/default.php

My mistake, but I've suggested these on three of these threads now and iphone users keep saying they don't have access to them.
