AIM for iPhone developer speaks in a forum

Just happen to come across this post on slashdot:

"It's not going anywhere as far as I know. I'm one of the developers of AIM for iPhone, and frankly we're glad that it's been discovered and slashdotted :)
Sending IMs to a mobile number is a feature of the AIM service, and there's no reason that we shouldn't have it for the iPhone. In fact, our data API (which is open sourced
here [google.com]) doesn't distinguish between mobile numbers and buddies. "

The reason this is interesting is that there are dedicated developers working on AIM for iPhone. Not so sure about Sprint Instinct!
