I have the version from extras testing, and would like to say I love it. It's a little bit slower than mauku in my experience, and I've had it lock up a couple of times (and crash out 'not responding'). But the increased functionality is awsome and makes for a much better experience.

Thank you for doing this - I can see Witter becoming the most useful twitter app on maemo.
hitting tweet is still processed on the main thread. this does mean the ui locks, but should avoid duplicate tweets. if i figure out the busy indicator I'll probably put tweeting on a background thread.

0.2.1-4 is now in extras-devel, for full details see:
http://danielwould.wordpress.com/witter
but basically the main thing is OAuth support, and a busy indicator (thanks again mwerle for pointing me in the right direction on that)
So no new 'function', no better UI etc etc. But I've wanted to do OAuth from the begining, so I'm happy now it's done.

I had read that doc a while back but obviously had not associated the "progress indicator" as the little busy spinner... ah well, live and learn!

0.2.1-6 now in extras-devel has a fix for launching urls, which was giving some portion of people trouble before (but not all people weirdly)
I'm inclined to push this one up to extras-testing assuming no one has any obvious problems in the next few hours.
