The app Apple forgot!
This is truly the missing application for the iPhone: a chat application! The SMS application looks a lot like iChat but you unfortunately cannot chat with AIM, MSN or anyone on instant messaging. This third-party application is a good alternative, but being a web applications, it has some limitations. It will let you log in to your AIM account. You can quickly access your buddy list. There are also a lot of customization options. The best is to try it out at https://www.iphonechatclient.com/

It'll be interesting to see if iChat is in the first update. How big of a tease is the SMS application? seriously. Beejive seems to work really well, and they have been updating their software since they first rolled it out.
Perhaps I'm being paranoid. I got as far as keying in my dot-mac user name (which is the way I use iChat) and then stopped before I keyed in my dot-Mac password. After all, why would I pass all the information required to access my entire dot-mac account to an organisation I know nothing about.
Apple doesn't forgot it: AT&T don't want it, because they want that the customer pay money for calling.
