Due to the Facebook plugin issues that can cause alot of problems for the users (as most have Facebook accounts) I'm giving this a thumb down.

@Paolo: I'm not sure about the MSN but Yahoo definately work as I've been using it since the previous version.

Did anyone test ICQ and Yahoo messenger account creation? did not work in 0.7...

I agree with the facebook issues. Great feature but still some problems to work out. I dont see duplicate contacts but I am having the duplicate chat issues and in some cases what I type is echoed back to me from who I am talking to.

I am ok with the chat duplication, but the most annoying thing is the contacts duplication.

It generated a new contact whenever someone on Facebook goes online. After merging the contact to an existing contact. By going offline or disable account, then going online again, the merged contacts continue to show as a new contact and has to be merge again.

Jonny, can you modify facebook chat package to address the these issues:

1. killall mission-control in postinst so users can sign in their FB account right after installation.

2. disable show history by default to eliminate chat dupliaction issue.

It's still quite buggy especially the new Facebook chat plugin.

With Facebook chat, 1) duplication continue to occur when going online/offline or enable/disable the account. 2) Chatting on a normal browser on a computer generate false messages on the N900. Ie I said 'Hi' to a person from my computer, the N900 shows 'Hi' from the person I'm talking to at the same time.
