I recently bought a new cell phone, the HTC Touch Pro. Yeah, yeah, I know the Touch Pro 2 is out soon… but I care more about “now” than “soon.” Plus, my old PPC 6700 was having issues.
Anyway, I do like the phone. My sister-in-law mentioned she was surprised that I didn’t hold out for the Palm Pre, but I am partial to Windows Mobile. The Touch Pro will be my fourth Windows Mobile (or Pocket PC, same difference really) device, so I just don’t feel like learning something totally new.
Anyway, I’ve also recently been getting into using Twitter. (http://twitter.com/DavidTheGray if you’re interested.) So I found myself wanting a good app for tweeting, and almost everyone said good things about Twikini. I like the app quite a bit, although I am having issues with the GPS location feature. (Likely this is just issues with the Touch Pro, and not Twikini at all.)
If you’re using Windows Mobile, and haven’t seen Twikini…
…it looks something like that. Actually, that is the color theme I use… it looks fairly good even in full sunlight on the Touch Pro screen. (Well, as good as anything can on a reflective screen in sunlight.)
Since I’m not always tweeting via the phone, on my Windows Vista computers I’ve also been using the Twadget sidebar gadget. It’s not great, but has worked out better than every other sidebar gadget I’ve tried. Oh, and for anyone with a Kindle… just use the “Experimental” web browser and you can tweet just fine. However, I’m finding that if I’m not just sitting in front of a computer, Twikini works best.
