So I clicked on the search icon and put

#iranelection #n900 #kindle

on the line and hit refresh.

Got an error. I suppose it looks for all three, which is probably correct, but I wish a drop-down bar would pop up of searches done in the past, then you could select a search you have used before. As it is, it appears to only remember one search. Twitter itself saves searches, why not witter?
put a comma between those search terms, and you will get one search for each term.
it *should* also 'save' them in the sense that if you swipe to a different view, and then back to searches, your terms will still be there. and if you quit and re-open your searches should still be there (can't promise no bugs)
I'm not sure I know what twitter does in terms of saving searches and if there is some mechansism I could tie into which would use searches stored by twitter, then it is something I might look at. But for the moment, the above describes the function that is there.

Check out Witter, a twitter client for N900
http://danielwould.wordpress.com/witter

If Witter isn't working for you, eg crashes/doesn't start, gives errors etc etc. Please run it from x-term using:
run-standalone.sh python2.5 /opt/witter/witter.py

This will generate diagnostic output. Without this I cannot help you.
