Hello-

This has always been a shady area for me. Back in my days with T-Mobile, on my BlackBerry 7100t, I was able to run messengers (Agile I think) that would always be on, and not significantly affect battery life. When I got an IM, the phone would blink/make a noise.

Why isn't this possible with WM? It seems no matter what messenger I use, the instant it goes idle (aka, into standby mode) the connection is dropped.

Am I understanding this correctly?

Thanks.
