It looks like text chat is completely optional, depending on whether or not 
you've set up an account with the big 4.  This leads me to believe that the 
text chatting is always based on one of these services and therefore not p2p, 
and that the other features (like video conferencing) are not based on 
existing IM protocols like AIM or MSN.

With this in mind, there's no reason they couldn't have supported Jabber.  For 
some reason they have ICQ.  Didn't our userbase surpass that of ICQ?
