Engadget: Live from Apple's iPhone SDK press conference

Notice the Bonjour icon in the middle of the bottom toolbar. WTF, AOL? I was looking forward to Bonjour chatting.

I was wondering this myself! And where are the smilies? And why don't we have the feature of not crashing? I guess that was taken out too 🙁

Apple needs to seriously get on the bandwagon and release iChat. I don't really even care if they charge .99 or 2.99 or whatnot. But this AIM stuff is BS and I hate using AOL products.

Give me iChat with bonjour support so I can text to other iPhones around me using Wi-Fi and stay off the network. Please.

There's no smilies either? 😱

I think this whole 2.0 thing was rushed, forcing developers to drop features in order to have their software ready in time for the App Store launch. But now that the App Store has launched, I hope developers will get back to work and start releasing updates. (That includes Apple. I expect to see a 2.0.1 firmware release soon that fixes this random reboot nonsense.)
