Glad it's here, so I no longer have to Airplay from an iOS device. But can we talk about the UI? It seems Amazon's dumped an entire web renderer into the app ( https://twitter.com/…

AIM did go mobile. It was in the iPhone App Store on day 1. Push notifications didn’t even exist back then. When push notifications were announced by Apple in June 2009 as part of …
