IM+ verifies push services now enabled, were temporarily disabled

And, our questions are (partially) answered. Shape Services (the makers of IM+) made a statement today on their facebook page:

Hi everyone, 

just a few quick announcements:

1) Push feature is now temporarily disabled, sorry for that. We will enable it within 24 hours. No application update will be needed.

2) Windows Live Messenger (formerly known as MSN) service support has been removed due to Microsoft Marketplace request. Hopefully, we will be able to add it back some time soon.

We appreciate your interest in beta round.

Please send us all your comments and suggestions.
