Default Bittorrent client for Android?

I've been looking around the net for a bittorent client for Android, but have come up empty. I have found a couple, but they got very bad reviews. Has anyone found one that is any good? Or are we still waiting for one to be developed?

Thanks

Keith

Why on earth would you want a BT client on your mobile? Youll kill your bandwidth allowance and clog up your phones SD space... not to mention running an app like that is draining on the battery and system memory.

I had some luck using AndroidTorrent with my old G1:

But as people say, it's a real drain, so now I use Transdroid to remote control a Deluge daemon running on my home PC.

It's actually quite simple as to why I would like a good BT client as I only have a 3G connection at home. So when I have the ability to connect to WiFi, then I can download what I need and then move it to my laptop at home.

I have tried aBTC, and I agree that it doesn't d/l very well. Hoping something better will be out soon.

I used a bittorrent app on my old N95 8GB all the time. When it comes to apps Android has a lot but they aren't as varied and as functional as symbian apps.
