Is it just me or recently Apple is mr me too? I mean, this is a lot like WhatsApp, except it's cross platform, which i see a big no go for me really. The new OS from Apple also has a ton of apps that were created using the successful models they found in appstore, if they like them so much why don't they buy them.
I wish the addressing mechanism of iMessage was more clear. If I send someone an iMessage from my Mac, does it show up as from my email address of my Apple account? Is the phone number of my iPhone automatically registered as an iMessage-eligible recipient when I set up my Apple account on my iPhone (currently doesn't appear to be).
So, people can iMessage you at any of the identifiers attached to you AppleID and it will be sent to all locations.
Does it work on Mac OS X Leopard on PowerPC?

What Apple has done is merge all addressed/phone numbers of an AppleID into one. If you send a message with Messages on you phone, your side of the conversation will appear in the thread on your phone/iPad/etc. They are one now. So, people can iMessage you at any of the identifiers attached to you AppleID and it will be sent to all locations.

Is this correct? I have sent and received iMessages on my phone but they do not appear on my iPad or my Mac. I wish it worked as you described, but it doesn't seem to be.
