Here's a great example i just saw on Digg: http://blog.ibeentoubuntu.com/2008/08/gnome-has-empathy-for-you.html (and here's the digg link) http://digg.com/linux_unix/Gnome_has_Empathy_for_You
Also, i think testing Empathy is a great idea. If it ends up being included in Ubuntu, i don't see any real problems. Anyone who is so attached to pidgin will simply install it. New users will be fine and happy with Empathy and all its benefits. Either way, we're just testing it! If we don't test it we could be missing out on something that would be really great.
