On Thursday, makers of the Trillian multinetwork instant messaging app uttered their first peep about a beta version of Trillian 1.0 for BlackBerry. The app is currently in a limited closed beta, which means that only a select group of testers has access to the app--and the bugs. The company predicts a short timeline of "a few weeks" before releasing the final version.

What the hordes of BlackBerry chatters can expect in Trillian's BlackBerry build? For a start, there's support for Yahoo, Google Talk, Windows Live Messenger, AIM, Facebook, MySpaceIM, and Jabber/XMPP chat networks. You'll be able to sync your Trillian details, including contacts and avatars, with Trillian on Windows, Mac, iPhone, and the Web.
