* Development Status: 3 - Alpha
* Environment: Maemo
* Intended Audience: End Users/Desktop
* License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
* Natural Language: English

Has someone any news about it? tested?

Installed it yesterday, seems OK so far. Little buggy with the login (to be expected being an alpha release of course) but the UI is good.

UI is nice, but has not many features yet. Also doesn't use OAuth, so tweets will be from "API" and you only have 150 instead of 350 api calls per hour. Doesnt do much other than displaying your timeline. But looks promising.

€: Be aware that it installs the complete source under /src (700k) which will end up on the rootfs.

€: Use

Code:
rm -r /src /twitterbox.pro
to clean up.

It works verry good for a Alpha version, i love it. Just need some more functions and the "Remeber me" button is not working for now. But i love the interface of this one. This could be the nr 1 twitter app for the N900 if more functions would be available.

Great client. I'll be in contact with the boys who are developing this, to submit bugs and code enhancements.

I've got some screenshots up at http://knownokia.ca/2010/03/18/twitterbox-on-the-n900/
