In any case, it's the only explanation I can think of for why we're at the end of day 2 of iPhone OS 3.0 and there are still no instant messaging apps using Push Notifications. If 1 in 10 disappear we'll be seeing lawsuits.
If just 1 in 25 messages disappears into the ether this will be marked as an epic failure on the part of either AT&T, Apple's or both. That would easily explain why Apple has yet to release the push capable instant messaging apps - someone doesn't thing Push Notifications are ready for the scale BeejiveIM, IM+ and other chat apps will introduce once they start populating millions of phones. Maybe they really did just disappear into AT&T or Apple's servers. I was initially willing to dismiss the missing Push Notifications as something I did wrong but now I'm starting to get suspicious. But that's just me - I've sent or received a total of maybe 12 messages. One notification never came up with Textfree Lite and one with Star Defense. Maybe that coolness factor blinded me to the fact that a couple came up missing.

I myself have seen them work several times in many of the free apps from our Applist. It's awesome to have an app that's closed actually send you something. The coolness factor of receiving a Push Notification is off the charts. Both Beejive and AIM have demonstrated working Push Notifications. In addition, AIM put a solid beta in developer's hands days ago and Mobile Crunch reported that BeejiveIM 3.0 should have been up in iTunes as early as 12 hours ago. BeejiveIM and IM+, two premier and expensive chat apps both advertise in their App Store descriptions that they've submitted to Apple their 3.0 Push Notification updates. I'm primarily asking this question because I know the chat apps are ready. They were delayed over six months so Apple could "get it right." A chat app should've been the first out the gate because they're the apps which will benefit the most from this service. Push Notifications were the marquee feature of iPhone OS 3.0.
Where are the instant messaging apps with Push Notifications? I certainly don't want to be that guy who cries wolf. I still have to ask the question though because I think it's on a lot of people's minds. As luck usually has it this post will go live and sometime shortly thereafter it'll be invalidated.
