I think once Apple enables push notifications the IM won't be a problem (well as much) anymore.

I thought there were VOIP clients? Well I guess worse comes to worse you could always jailbreak it.

The utility of mobile devices is inversely proportional to how stable and how long things take to work.
True. I guess the key phrase is how long it takes things work (which would also imply how you want it to work). I'm not saying iTunes doesn't work. For what it does as a media player, it works pretty well (if not perfect for most people). Though whenever I've experimented with it, I never liked it. And the computers I ran it on were by no means sluggish. (Dual Core CPUs, 2+ GBs of RAM). It just doesn't work for me :P (if that makes any sense).

@BoxOfSnoo

Yeah, that would never happen sadly. iTunes works because Apple has control from the software to the hardware (iPods and what not).
