I use it because I loved Trillian on Windows but Trillian on mac is still a buggy, alpha product. One thing that's incredibly hard to get right with modern IM is intelligent multi-device routing. It's incredibly frustrating to have your phone buzzing next to you as you're having a conversation on your PC. Using Trillian on all my devices prevents that and that's reason enough since Adium doesn't have a iPhone app.
