last100: Apple patent for real-time IM on iPhone hints at what’s really to come

  • Ryan Jarrett · 1 year ago
    Another reason Apple may be developing IM now is to give Android-based phones less of an advantage once they appear. The Android SDK has been out for a while now and from what I've read, instant messaging seems more at home on Android. However, I do understand that the same hardware restrictions would apply if the processor/batteries are not up to scratch.
