Yea, now I'm no expert, but zeroconf (Bonjour on the Mac) is used to
advertise device names so both Mac and XO will see each other (very
friendly), however the actual chat protocol/mechanics currently used
by the XO are not the same as used by iChat – which is a pity but
hopefully/maybe fixable at some point (sure I've seen some dev talk
about this somewhere). I'm not sure if the actual chat protocol being
used by either device is a formal standard, I hope it is, but I guess
this particular compatibility would not be high priority other than
for G1G1 owners who are likely to meet a Mac or two on their networks.
