Almost all un-branded Sony Ericsson phones since the T630 have "My Friends..."

Off the top-of-my-head, this includes the K300i, K500i, K700i, P910i (I could be wrong about this one...) Z1010 and Z800i.

ALL new (un-branded) Sony Ericsson phones will also have My Friends...

My Friends is known as "IM" on Motorola phones and "My Presence" on Nokia phones.

See yamigo.com for information on setting it up...

Some useless trivia...

The "Wireless Village Project" is a joint-venture by certain major mobile telecommunications and portable computing companies (namely Motorola, Nokia and Sony Ericsson) to bring real-time instant messaging to mobile devices...

My Friends is Sony Ericsson's Wireless Village client; Motorola's has the unimaginative name of "IM," whilst Nokia's is called "My Presence."

My Friends DOESN'T alert you to when new buddies come online, only when you receive instant messages...

This is probably one of the few flaws in the client.

Ah my friend but you are incorrect, although it is partly my fault for misleading you with my lazy inglish.

When you have logged in:

MESSENGING >>> MY FRIENDS >>> "choose contact" >>> MORE >>> MANAGE CONTACT >>> ALERT WHEN ONLINE.

Then when one of your very good friends come online the handset plays the message alert.

Darraaaah! You get an alert when one of you contacts comes online. You have to set this beforehand for each contact but the principle is the same.

This must be a new feature, 'cause my Z1010 can NOT be set to alert me when contacts come online...

It must be a different configuration then.

When I set up the alert a little gold bell appears next to the contact and when they come online the message tone sounds.

The S700i came out a lot later than that Z1010 so it is probably a newer version.

Hi everybody!

Is anyone able to tell me how to configure the settings for "Yahoo Messenger" for example?
Or where could I find the settings (in particular which is the "domain" and "server")?

Thanks in advance for any hint!

It's alright- the Z800i has just been released in Australia a few days ago, and I plan to have one in the next 1-2 months!
