Hi adnurahs - I remember someone saying that something like iChat which is streaming video would be against their terms of service. Now I could be wrong especially since iChat is a little different than streaming TV for example through Sling since there probably won't be tons of people that will be willing or able to do it since it will be an iphone only feature(at this time). I think if they do have it they might include it at an additional cost, but I think we already pay enough for the data so it's hard to say. iChat is kind of the messages app, phone app, and safari all put together which we pay to use each unless you don't pay for texts, so they should just charge it off of those plans.
