The rumors about iChat Video support in some iteration of the iPhone have begun to resurface, but this time there is a bit of evidence. While 9to5mac was gracefully consuming their time browsing the latest iPhone SDK they came upon an interesting set of icons. The icons circled above show an accept video chat button or decline video chat button to be used somewhere within the OS. Aside from the visual proof, 9to5mac also found an interesting bit of code buried within the SDK which furthers the evidence of Steve Jobs claim that the next OS update to the iPhone will be a significant one.
We doubt that AT&T would be keen to let us use our unlimited bandwidth in a truly unlimited way with iChat video on the iPhone. We could hope to assume though that we can at least use the iChat video feature when connected via Wifi. Either way you never know for sure what Apple will be bringing us next. Could this also be coming to the final version of iPad? We hope so…
