While reading this comment on the new iChat AV beta that supports video conferencing with AOL's AIM...

I wonder if it tells you now if someone is on a cell phone. I am getting tired of using AIM to find out who is on a phone.

... I started thinking what so many others already are, "When is iChat/AIM going to let us make a phone call?" Heck, everything else is already there. Now, double-click Mom, talk to her through the mic on your Mac/PC/what-have-you. And yes, I know there's software that already does this, but not all cheesily integrated with my AIM client. That'd be great. Not to mention away messages on peoples' phones...
