at least it's consistent ;-)
I suppose I might presume that id numbers don't necessarily always go up, so I can consider doing some parsing/processing of the time stamp. I had wanted to avoid that, but it might prove more robust.

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.

Yep, same issue here, mentions for me are jumbled also so date sorting might be a better bet.

ok seems like I need to fix that, and the fact I forgot to put RT in the new actions stackable window. and do that before I promote to extras-testing

Frustratingly parsing the UTC timestamp with offset from twitter isn't working properly, the python utilities available on fremantly appear to parse everything except the actual time, returning the right day/date but 00:00:00 for the time. So currently no fix for ensuring sort order is correct.
However I have uploaded a couple of new versions to extras-devel with some minor updates
http://danielwould.wordpress.com/witter for changelog

First of all, Daniel: thanks for the update, it looks much better and it seem to work much smoother also. Am impressed how good it looks and is working now. (although I would like an option for changing the background color and tekst color myself, but that is only a personal preference

....)

I do have a question: is it normal that when you do a search it only shows the avatar's from people in your friend's list. All others are having the Witter Icon in front of them?? don't know if this is done on purpose or if it is a a bug??

that is intentional, twitter search results don't include user info like the avatar url. so to retrieve it would require an additional lookup for each unknown. currently I'm working on the basis that it sufficient for avatars for friends and people talking directly to you. also if you open a users history it will fetch their avatar.

Yhis one might just be ready for testing. Very smooth and stable compared to earlier versions.

Not quite, it seems I've broken the replyAll function.
Also follow/unfollow don't work at all with OAUth and I have no idea why ;-(

Since the new update I can't post a new tweet at all, tried all day and it looks like it is posting but no conformation and when looking on the web it hasn't post anything

. Don't know if more users have the same? or is it just me??

erm, that is weird, I've certianly been posting away no problem
if you run witter from a terminal it outputs quite a lot of diagnostic information that might give a hint as to what is going wrong.
open xterm
run:
run-standalone.sh python2.5 /opt/witter/witter.py

see if there are any clues in the output when you attempt to tweet.
