- MSN + ALL Jabber
- MSN alone
- gmail alone (note that one is screenshooted a bit earlier so you still see the charging period, ignore it)
- no IM at all
I've tried to make msn-pecan as efficient as possible, unfortunately there was a pretty nasty bug that only appears if you:
  1. Have offline messages pending
  2. Have daylight savings time in your timezone

Then msn-pecan would keep trying to get authorization drying your battery pretty fast. I just pushed a fix to extras-testing: telepathy-msn-pecan 0.1.0-0maemo3.

Can you give it a try?
