    hi,

    I've been waiting for roughly a couple of weeks for my SocialScope invite now... Seeing how much attention it has got from everyone and how the select few beta testers praise it I am really excited about it. If someone with SocialScope already can take a couple of minutes to answer my questions I would be really glad!

    a) Will SocialScope use WiFi if there is no other active data connection (WiFi-only mode)?

    b) Can you set an audible notifier in your profiles for every new Twitter/Facebook update?

    c) Does the Facebook website say "via Mobile Web" when you update your profile via SocialScope?

    d) Is SocialScope friendly with Hybrid/Beta 5.0 OS? If yes, on which device did you test this?

    e) Can SocialScope present Unicode characters and will it allow you to use Unicode (e.g. Arabic)?

    Thank you much.

    I'll take a couple.
    A. I turned my network off and just left wifi on and ss updated fine. So I guess the answer is yes.
    B. The only notification options in the settings are for replys and dm's. This doesn't bother me as I get approx 50 new updates every 5 mins so I don't want it sounding except for items meant specifically for me.
    D. I too am using it on a 8900 on 5.0.238 with no issues.

    Maybe someone else can help with the other questions.

    Thank you for the answers, but we have some mixed results here:

    Can someone give me a definite answer for the WiFi question? One user reports SocialScope works with WiFi and one user says the opposite.

    WiFi is most important to me, if SocialScope can't use it I won't need it either.

    Thanks again!

    I can confirm that Socialscope does work with Wi-Fi. I turned off all connections except Wi-Fi, went into Socialscope, hit L and it grabbed all the new tweets and status updates

    a) Yes SocialScope works without a data account via WiFi

    b) Yup you have a lot of control over notification...every tab can have its own notification setting.

    c) It shows up as a normal status update, sometime Facebook adds via SocialScope sometimes it doesn't.

    d) We don't officially support it, but people do run it on 5.0

    e) Yup, but the unicode charset on the bb is very limited
