With the rather disappointing list of missing features that arose from Steve Jobs’ intro of iPhone 2.0 last week, Blackberry and its partner developers, like Palringo, are licking their chops.
The newest iteration of code from Palringo adds voice chat and picture messaging to Blackberry devices, giving the new iPhone a swift smack on the rump. The new services works with Curve, 8800, and Pearl devices from RIM, and supports just about every well-known I.M. network. Take that, iChat.
With an OS X version in alpha right now, one wonders how long it will be before Palringo is doing the same thing for the iPhone that it’s doing for Blackberries.
