iChat update and MWSF connection?

[officerdick]

Just looked at the apple page describing the new iChat 1.0 update.

This update renews the .Mac certificate required by iChat for encrypting text, audio, and video conferences.

This document will be updated as more information becomes available.

To me it seems quite odd that Apple dose not have information on what has been patched. Mabey they are patching so iChat becomes capatible with the Apple Phone(formaly know as iPhone), or mabey something completeley else?

Do you ever get the feeling you are talking to yourself?

Seriously though, I suppose it could have something to do with a MWSF release but you would also expect an OS 10.4.9 to co-inside with it. Also an iTunes update and maybe even iPhoto if they are all going to sync together. Only 4 days to go though...

That's simply isPhone and isICQorPhone stacked next to each other. If you do strings /Applications/iChat.app/Contents/MacOS/iChat > ichat_strings.txt in the Terminal and then open ichat_strings.txt, you'll find them separated in this way. Furthermore, those strings exist in my version of iChat, which has not been updated yet. Near that area, I get:

defaultManager
null
isNull
isDirectory
hexValue
stringByRemovingURLEscapes
stringByAddingURLEscapes
stripDotMacSuffixIfPresent
isPhone
isICQorPhone
rangeOfNewlineInRange:

Looks pretty much the same.

By the way if an Apple Phone is released it will not be called iPhone and thats a 100% bet, Belkin or some other company already owns the trademark, there is a Skype handset called iPhone by this company.

Your post reminds me much of the Marathon Story page the tru7h is out there...
