Data clients are nice, but they kill the battery where as I can leave my client connected all day without much concern for battery life.

Also, I hope the new AIM client for iPhone supports picture sharing. Agile Messenger does it although a slightly different way as it uploads the photo to a site where the recipient must click a link to view it. Even if AIM did this I wouldn't mind...it would also be kind of neat to have an online storage area for my photos this way (assuming the photos were stored on AIM photos or in XDrive or something).
