Howdy!
When i got my N900 i installed butterfly witch i used for a couple of weeks but it drained my battery in few hours after a full charge so i changed to haze which does the same. Eventually i installed Pecan 0.1 after stumbling upon Felipes blog where he explained its written in C and is probably much more efficient. Well After using it for a month or so now i can tell that its VERY power efficient compared to haze and butterfly and just works like a charm. and it doesnt slowdown starting up and scrolling of contacts which was a big annoyance with butterfly.
As a tip:
when you install Pecan after haze or butterfly you get the msn users to your contacts again even though you have merged the msn with contacts already. Well noworries - instead of merging contacts you can just go to the contactcard of a friend whos msn account is once more added to your contactlist and just click the IM Msn field and it asks you about the msn account - just choose the IM Pecan MSN and the two visible msn acoounts are merged as.one IM MSN Pecan account in the contactcard and the odd msn email contact disappear from the contacts list.. A long and crappy explanation but hope you get it
In short: Pecan (now 0.1.0 RC3)works great! Get it from devel and vote it (where by the way?)!
