    No more futzing with Safari IM solutions, kids. The iPhone has it’s own native messaging apps.

    First, there’s Apolloim, a super beta AIM client for the iPhone. It seems to work, but it’s completely untested. Next, you have ircm, an IRC client so you can tell n00bs to GTFO. Both have full source code available and it will be interesting to see how long before they escape from beta.
