And here is an exerpt from an article in Venturebeat today about tweetsville, twitter client for iPhone:

"But Tweetsville is different. It keeps it simple, and better yet, it does so while looking like it belongs on an iPhone. Usage is logical; clicking on a tweet (Twitter message) brings a page for the user where you can easily send a reply, send a private message, toggle the message as a favorite or view their profile. It may sound obvious, but the other clients all made basic functions much more difficult than they needed to be.

And it’s not like Tweetsville is lacking in other options either. There is an area devoted to hot trends on Twitter — that is, what words people are tweeting a lot. Click on a word shows you who is sending the tweets about it most recently.

Tweetsville also has a robust search feature. Beyond basic word searches, going into the “Advanced” menu allows you to search for things like specific phrases, hashtags, places, dates and a wide range of other options. It’s actually more advanced than Twitter Search itself.

The only real critique I have is that Tweetsville should move the “@ Replies” area (to see who has publicly written a message to you) to the main bottom menu area. Right now, it resides in the “More” area.

And for those who use the other clients because they allow you to easily attach pictures to a tweet, Tweetsville allows for this too."

yeah, I alway look for the

yeah, I alway look for the free apps first to see if there is a good one. if not then MAYBE i will think of buying one

Looks great, but...

...not gonna pay $3.99 for something I can't play with first. Drop a few free trials around, and let the word spread. If it's good, I'll buy it and evangelize. But with too many other free apps out there, not before trying.
