Cons: -Drained my battery completely. I'm now running it on Edge to preserve it for the day. -When I re-open it to a view a push notification IM, the IM doesn't show up/gets lost. -EVERYTIME I exit the application it loses my IM history from even 1 minute before. -Logs me out/freezes on Edge. Works extremely slow. Beejive seems to work with the same efficiency on Edge as it does on 3G. It does crash sometimes, but never any IM issues with losing my history/not showing my new IMs. Pro: Nice look.

Cons:

-Drained my battery completely. I’m now running it on Edge to preserve it for the day.

-When I re-open it to a view a push notification IM, the IM doesn’t show up/gets lost.

-EVERYTIME I exit the application it loses my IM history from even 1 minute before.

-Logs me out/freezes on Edge. Works extremely slow.
