Rumor: Apple is Building iMessage into OS X Lion’s iChat

iOS iMessage
This year at WWDC, Apple unveiled a new service called “iMessage”. iMessage is a a unified messaging service for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch that allows users to send text and multimedia messages over Wi-Fi and 3G with read and delivery receipts and real-time typing indication. It is also one of the major new features of the upcoming iOS 5 update. Currently, iMessage is not integrated into iChat.
A developer has discovered strings of code for “timeDelivered” and “timeRead”, which has ledMacRumors to speculate that Apple could eventually bring support for its iMessage protocol to iChat.
