  IM+ 3.1 to be released within the week (hopefully) 

  If you’ve been waiting patiently for the updated release of the IM+ iPhone application to be releaesd for the 3.0 iPhone software, the wait is almost over according to Aleksander from ShapeServices.com.  He says that they submitted it on the 17th and expect it to be released within a week.

  The IM+ 3.1 will take advantage of the new push notification features in the upgraded 3.0 firmware of the iPhone.  It supports the largest number of Instant Messanger and chat services of any other iPhone application that I’ve seen.  This thing does it all!
