iChat Coming to iOS?


Hidden code has been discovered within iOS 5 that points towards iChat services. These include Jabber and AIM, services which are currently not supported on iOS.
Of course, the discovery by developer John Heaton has led to speculation that Apple might include iChat in iOS sometime in the future. There’s also a possibility, as reported byMacRumors, that Apple is planning on introducing a general IM framework with support for Apple’s IM protocols, even if actual services might not be supported or available on certain platforms.
iChat on Macs includes support for services like AIM and Jabber but iMessage is currently not available, even if the offering is already being rumored.
