Can someone recommend a good chat solution that is compatible with Win 2003
sp2 terminal services in app mode?
Is Trillian a good solution?
Any horror stories/gotchas I should be aware of?
I'm tasked with implementing this in the next week or so. No budget, other
than my time, Nat.

Thanks!

I have clients that use Windows Live Messenger an mIRC.

I'm also in the opening stages of researching collaboration suites Is
windows Live messenger a piece of / related to Office Live Meeting?

Do you think waiting and implementing chat as part of an overall solution
would be a better choice - also looking a sharepoint - although I'd like to
get Something in place this month.
 
No, Windows Live Messenger is the free download from Microsoft. I suppose it
depends if your company plans to use IM as a supported communication
mechanism, where it'd have to be encrypted, backed-up and always available.
If that is the case, then I'd look at Office Communication Server
