Other than the slow, small steps AOL is taking, AIM 5.1 doesn't appear to offer more features or fewer ads than the in-release AIM 5.0. Considering that and the prowess of the $25 or even the for-free Trillian .74, there's no reason to stoop as low as AIM. If you want working communication between AIM and ICQ, Trillian remains the real deal--at least for now. Check back for our full review of the final release of AIM 5.1.
