This version includes the IM client that one would expect. Additionally, Friendly Name support is here - no more hard-to-remember names for your ICQ or Mobile users on your Buddy List. Now, when you add an ICQ or Mobile user to your Buddy List, you will have an opportunity to create a more familiar Friendly Name for that user. You can also edit existing ICQ or Mobile users on your Buddy List to add a Friendly Name to their entry. Once you've created a Friendly Name for an ICQ or Mobile user, you will see their Friendly Name, when they're online, in your Buddy List, Instant Messages with them, and other places in AIM. (Note: you can always see the ICQ/Mobile User's true screen name by using the Get Info command).
