iChat & Google Talk??

[~J~]

I've heard you can use iChat to talk with someone who has google chat... is this true? If so, how can I set iChat up to work w/gtalk?

I did that and it adds a second "friends list" for Jabber... is there a way to add those to my current iChat list?

No, the "Buddy List" is only for AIM buddies, and the Jabber list is for the Google contacts.

The current iChat doesn't allow the lists to be merged. However, I am hoping this is an undocumented feature of Leopard's iChat.

I hope so too. Would also love to see tabbed chat windows...

Tabbed windows are a feature of Leopard's iChat, but are also available for earlier versions via Chax.
