MobileChat – one of the two leading IM programs for the iPhone – has been updated to Version 2.0 Beta.

Highlights of the new version include:

  • Removed libfiretalk/BBTOC
  • Integrated libpurple
  • Buddy Alias Support
  • New non-invasive IM notifications
  • New Protocol Support: .Mac, ICQ, GTalk, MSN
  • Complete overhaul to Conversation view. No more scrolling bugs. Bubble’s look like iChat’s now, no more extra padding.
  • Complete overhaul to Buddy List back-end. Manages memory much better, should handle large buddy lists far better.
  • A lot of the memory management and leaks issues have been fixed.
  • Far more stable then previous versions
  • Ability to view an away message in “More” view
  • Added ability to keep EDGE alive.
  • Added ability to bring EDGE up when it’s down, you no longer need use safari to force it up
  • Completely redid the way Vibration and Sound notifications are handled for much better stability.
  • Uses new “Event” manager to deliver events between classes
  • Tons of other misc bug and stability fixes.
  • New icon from Louie Mantia

MobileChat claims to be so lightweight and efficient that: "it runs just about as well on the EDGE network as it does on any WiFi network!"

The new version is available now on Installer, and requires iPhone Firmware Version 1.0.2 or earlier.
