Are there any IM clients that use push like Google Talk does? I tried eBuddy and Beejive beta and they both kill my battery. Is Trillian any better?
Thanks

You do know that when using eBuddy your battery life will increase if you go into settings and click the "extend battery life" option. This may delay a message UP TO 15 minutes because it isn't constantly polling. I've noticed increased battery life with all the ROMs I have tried it on and the chats are instant. Give it a try.. if it doesn't work for you then try something else.
