Default Can't connect to MSN

Hey..

I cant connect to MSN Messenger / Windows Live Messenger.
I use a Blackberry 8820 with 4.5 patch on it.
The message MSN gives is "Service not enabled for this handheld"

Is there any way to fix this?
Or are there other IM Softwares where i can sign in with my @hotmail.com account?

Do you have a BLACKBERRY Data Plan from your cell phone carrier?

In order to use Windows Live Messenger or other Instant Messenger apps on a BlackBerry device, you must have a BlackBerry specific data plan (BIS) service from your phone service carrier.

So, the question is "what type of cell phone service plan do you have?"
