With the move, iChat users should now be able to add MSN or Windows Live accounts as buddies directly without the need of a gateway. The program now directly addresses all m...]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1110/ipad2-airplaymirroring.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[An as yet unverified rumor asserts that Apple's "Back to the Mac" philosophy will continue with two more key additions.  A 9to5 tip had both AirPlay Mirroring and iMessage in development.  Although code references have alluded to iMessage coming to iChat, Apple was supposedly working on both a stand-alone app and an integrated client to determine which was better, possibly the same strategy used f...]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1109/imessage-2.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Calls for iMessage to reach the Mac may have been answered through discoveries made Wednesday.  Elements for "timeDelivered" and "timeRead" receipts are in the framework of Lion's version of iChat that aren't needed for iChat's existing support but do reflect what iMessage would need.  Although not certain, MacRumors extrapolates to anticipate that iChat will eventually get active iMessage support...]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1010/appleoct20event.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Apple is now seeding two important software updates to developers.  The first is a new build of Mac OS X Lion, identified as 11A444d.

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1102/ichatav.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Another finding late Saturday has shown Apple expanding iChat AV to Yahoo Messenger. Marck Unkow has found that users can now sign into Yahoo for both audio and video conversations, much as they could with AIM in the past.  The client's only non-AIM support in the past had been for Jabber, which led to support for Google Talk, but only for text....]]></description>

<title>FaceTime to use e-mail to make iPod touch, iPad calls</title>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1006/iphone4-4sm.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Apple is changing the way FaceTime works to support a camera-equipped iPod touch and possibly the iPad as well, escaped details show.  Rather than require a phone number as on the iPhone 4, it will use one or more e-mail accounts attached to an Apple ID, which in turn will be linked to the device.  BGR understands that the approach would depend on a new push notification system in iOS 4.1 to handl...]]></description>
