Wow I just stumble upon this over at xda. going to give it a shot.
I just love how 6.5 panels are progressing!

Oh yeah Back up your chrome registry before testing.



[7th May 09][WM6.5] Titanium ArteseaTwitter v0.2

WM6.5 Titanium ArteseaTwitter
Version 0.2 - AVAILABLE
WVGA and **VGA** Supported

Update 7th May 09 VGA now supported, if you had previously downloaded the ZIP (even though it wouldn't work), please do it again. No other changes.

Having self taught myself MortScript in the last 24 hours I've decided to try and create a Titanium Twitter app. Unlike those already there, this one actually displays the 10 most recent tweets from your friends.

Features:

• Displays the 10 most recent tweets on your Titanium Home Screen
• Displays the avatars of your friends
• Allows you to update your status
• Tweets which contain URLs can be launched in the Default Browser by clicking on them

This is a long thread to read through. What app is closest to twitterena on the Iphone. It uploads to twitpict, post GPS coordinates, and do a lot of other stuff like breaks up the140 text barrier, etc..

I have a stock Verizon HTC Touch Pro.

twikini update

Version 0.95 (May 11, 2009)

• New: Full send and receive support for Direct Messages. View your Inbox and Sent items, read, write and delete DM's.
• New: You can now forward a tweet by SMS (just like you could with email). Look under Menu when reading a tweet.
• New: You can now display any user on a Google Map (it's pretty cool). To try it, click "Show on Map" in the Menu when viewing a user's profile.
• New: TwitPic images are now displayed inline right within the tweet window. So you don't have to open a browser. Just open any tweet with a TwitPic link and you'll see.
• Improved: Better image caching. Images will load much faster and use less bandwidth.
• Improved: The "Go to User" dialog defaults to the screen name from the highlighted tweet.
• Bug Fix: "Tweet Song Info" will now turn off when you sign out of one account and sign into another (this ensures that you don't accidently tweet your music taste to the wrong Twitter account!).
• Bug Fix: If you look at a protected user's profile that you are following, it gives you the option to Follow (instead of Unfollow).
• Bug Fix: The Twikini icon will be created under Start > Programs instead of the Start menu.
• Bug Fix: https:// URLs were not being handled correctly when reading tweets.
• Miscellaneous tweaks and improvements.

Remaining known issues (these will be fixed in the final v1.0 release):

• GPS does not initialize on some devices. A workaround is to use a different app like Live Search or Google Maps, initialize the GPS and then use it in Twikini.
• Auto Refresh does not work when device is turned off. The device has to be plugged in to a charger or remain ON for Twikini to auto refresh.
• Tweets in Russian, Chinese, Thai, Dutch and most other non-English languages do not post correctly.
