May I ask what features you are looking for? None of the clients has voice or video, so the only feature is text, which all of them have.

I don't use MSN, but the Telepathy upgrades adds nice support for the built in client, as well as AIM, Yahoo, GTalk, Jabber, etc.. I like the built in client, it integrates well with the tablet.

Pidgin is OK, but I think its too bloated. Fring is a more lite solution.

Gizmo is not what you want at all. WAY to slow and bloated.
