Ubuntu Touch's built-in messaging client is based on Telepathy, but it can currently only send and receive SMS and MMS
messages. I'm not sure, but Canonical's plan may be to extend this client so that it's a more general Telepathy client
and making its UI responsive - essentially, replacing Empathy for their desktop.
