Chime in: Will Microsoft ever release a true rival to Apple iMessage?

Microsoft hasn't got a solid messenger app out in the wild yet, but does the company need one?

Microsoft has invested time and money in its apps and services for iOS and Android, particularly the latter which allows for enhanced customization and system access. What Microsoft seems to be lacking to some is a cross-platform messenger app that's actually decent — looking at you, Skype.
