Just wondered if the iPhone - new or current model - can 'chat' with the new iPod Touch? Since they both use wifi, would this not be possible? If not, some developer should create an application to do enable it. Just 'sayin, y'know?

Should be theoretically possible... Twitterific comes to mind, though it isn't exactly a direct Peer-to-Peer / Instant Messaging-type app. Should only be a matter of time before we see something in the likes of a real IM client, perhaps?

During the keynote, Jobs mentioned about a framework/system they were developing to help the chat issue. I believe it's due in September.
