Instant messenger.

I'm looking for a good messenging app that can run Facebook chat and run in the background. I've tried Meebo and eBuddy but they both seem to disconnect if you leave your phone alone for so long. I want something like BBM that can run in the background and give me a notification when someone is trying to chat with me.

Tried Nimbzz?
IIRC it's quite good, but I use Meebo myself.

Nimbuzz, as great as it is will not allow your phone to sleep. I have no problems with EBuddy in the background. Do you have always on connection enabled?
