The only issue here is that WhatsApp lets you see the status of people who don't have you as a contact. The rest is utterly underwhelming.

One thing I loved about ICQ-esque IM services was that you could clearly see whether a contact was online or not. I still feel weird starting a conversation on WhatsApp because of the lack of clear visual cues of the contact's status.
