Wow. centericq actually *works*. Imagine that! :-). Drop it in a screen session and I won't need half-a-dozen AIM screen names any more. (one feature reason for using jabber is the ability to specify unique "resource" strings to allow multiple simultaneous logins with only one user name) I think centericq will soon become my preferred aim client, and possibly for jabber too!
