3g web browsing still works on old Kindles with the minimal browser. What i'm wondering is has anyone gotten a web portal to an IM of any kind to work anywhere? Preferably a metaclient (like Trillian - which I dont use, only know of) but at least some kind of IM period for realtime text chat with minimal bandwidth use. There used to be a number of them a few years back - most of which are gone when I follow links from articles on them.

I dont know whether the web client supports javascript, or whether that is required for any of the online clients.


PS i'm actually a little internet dumb - thats why i'm asking here. And I dont have the Kindles handy to test. (they are being used by homeless friends who only use them for email, i'm just trying to set them up with something realtime and it's a little clunky for random browsing and testing stuff) I don't even know what Google has or does for their accounts as I don't use one but they might have something that is viable.

Just looking for something that can show online, AFK, offline, and send short messages without the lagtime of email. SMS in many areas can lag 15 minutes or more.
