I just found this out earlier when I was trying to talk to a friend of mine. HOW LAME!

WTF is this? Some sort of joke? What a crappy addition if it doesn't work with 95% of the people you know
In a realm beyond site, the sky shines gold, not blue, there the Triforce's might makes mortal dreams come true.

LOL good point. If it wasn't for the microscopic chat window size and the pretty effects I would have stopped using it.

The onyl reason I'm using ichat 2 is because I like the way direct connect works

Chill it's still beta. If it's final and still doesn't work then I'll be pissed. they said they were working to try and get other interoperability.

1) Jobs said it was Mac-2-Mac only for the present during the preview.

2) It's based on standards. He said as soon as anyone else "copies what we're doing" they will work to insure interoperability.

3) It's a beta.
