windowsmobile icq ICQ Coming to Windows MobileIt’s been a long time coming, but AOL is running a beta for ICQ on Windows Mobile. The instant-messaging space is awfully crowded these days, but ICQ really is the grandaddy of IM, and there are surely a few diehard fans still using it. Third party apps like Fring have been providing ICQ access for awhile now, but something right from the source always works best. Windows Mobile 5, 6, and 6.1 are supported, including devices like:

  • T-Mobile (NYSE: DT) Dash™ and Wing™
  • Sprint (NYSE: S) HTC Touch(tm) and Diamond™
  • AT&T (NYSE: T) Samsung Blackjack(tm) II and Epix™
  • Verizon Wireless XV6800 and XV6900
  • Sprint Samsung Ace™
  • AT&T Pantech Duo™ and Matrix Pro™
  • Motorola (NYSE: MOT) Q
  • Most Palm (NSDQ: PALM) Treo’s

Head over to AOL to give it a shot – with any luck, your ICQ account is still active after all these years…

    Amazing. Only 10 years after everyone quit using ICQ. Good timing!
