Comment (by MarkDoliner):

 Looks like AOL increased the limit.  Neat.  I increased it in Pidgin, too.
 The change will be in the next release.

 I didn't realize that their beta client supports available messages now.
 I find it amusing that they increased the limit from 60 characters to 251
 even though iChat has supported available messages for years.  It's like
 they don't care about iChat at all, but as soon as their own client has
 available messages suddenly 60 characters just isn't enough.

 Thanks for letting us know about this!
