What's the battery life like when using loqui? When not implemented well, XMPP clients can be a real drain on battery because of the polling and other frequent protocol messages.
I can't really say. Until it completely broke my connectivity I was using the nightly builds and there were sometimes other problems with the battery life (like wireless not really sleeping) so it's not easy to say if the drains were caused by loqui or other stuff.
On the newest 1.2 image I have no data connectivity and can only use it with wifi. As that is normally in places where I have a stationary desktop with a client I am not really using it at the moment.
I think they just implemented the push api (1.2?)
without push anything like this will drain battery. so the clients will be decent battery wise (on par with android I suppose) 1.2 onwards i guess..
