I guessed about a couple friends, presuming them to have iPhones and early updaters to iOS5. Sure enough they showed as legitimate to iMessage (no red exclamation point). Mine & daughter's iPhones legit as well after iOS5. Messaging to my new me.com e mail address works to/from my iPad 2 & iPhone. Message to my aol e mail address went to iPhone only. I guess as iOS5 proliferates I'll see less red exclamation points.
