Very very very very buggy, doesn't log in half the time, other half doesn't show 90% of my Skype/MSN contacts as being online, when I know they are.

Has potential but needs a ton of work.

Nimbuzz lost support for Skype a while ago. They (or Skype, I don't remember) sent out an email out when the support was removed where they stated that it was because of issues with the quality/performance of the video calls through the Skype network. So, Nimbuzz doesn't support Skype. BUT IT'S A GREAT APP. I use it daily.
