AOL, MSN icons discovered in ROM image for Palm Pree

Just yesterday news broke of the impending addition of Yahoo support to Synergy, and now have already ripped the recently discovered recovery tool webOS ROM to shreds and in the wake have found some interesting bits, including \icons for [drum roll] AOL and MSN.

That’s not all: the Messaging app also contains support for gloox (Jabber/XMPP) and libpurple chat protocols. Jabber/XMPP is an open-source chat protocol used by many corporations and Google Talk, and libpurple (the basis of the popular Pidgin IM client), which could add support for anything from Windows Live Messenger to Yahoo chat to even Facebook chat.

webOS appears to be ripe and even prepared for expansion in future updates. While the Pre is a fairly awesome device as it is, if Palm implements just what we’ve discovered tonight we’re going to have to make up some new adjectives to describe just how cool the Pre is.
