    Anyone else excited for the new beta of UT?

    * Multiple Accounts - You can now configure multiple accounts, each with their own set of on-device preferences.
    * You can now BLOCK people!
    * Video Integration - We have partnered with TwitVid.com to offer you an outstanding video integration.
    * Goto user - You can now enter twitter users name and go directly to their timeline
    * URL Shortening - we've integrated with bit.ly so you can easily send those long URLs now and not bump up against the 140 limit
    * MUCH faster photo uploads, significantly improving the user experience.
    * Use of the internal GPS is now solidly supported with proper fallback to cell tower based location when GPS isn't available.
    * Icon Caching If you have and SD card, we will cache avatar icons on the card, increasing the speed of timeline displays and reducing network traffic.
    * You can now select pictures and videos that have already been take and are on your device. The interface shows the most recent at the top and offers a preview so you can verify it is the picture/video you expected!
    * When composing a tweet you can now insert symbols from a large selection of commonly available characters such as smiley's, hearts, etc.
    * Integrated advertisements - Please note, the ads are there to support the freely distributable version of �berTwitter. Users that purchase �berTwitter will not have advertisement in their version.
    * We've streamlined the friends and followers lists
    * You can now see both the number of friends, followers, and tweets sent when viewing the details of a tweet.
    * Replying to a DM from the timeline will now correctly send a DM and not a regular tweet
    * Fixed the bug in reply all where it would truncate some twitter user names
    * Added reply all to the menu when viewing a tweet


    Should be out tomorrow

    Totally! I never realized how addicted to Twitter I was until it was/is out on my BB. I got TinyTwitter to work but I don't like the app at all. Ubertwitter rocks!

    I'd be extatic if all they did was put an icon in the notification banner.

    UT or Twitterberry? I've been using Twitterberry but this looks like it has more features. If only the service was up and running so I could try it out...

    Not really. A lot of these "new" features already exist in SocialScope. Personally I'm not interested in multiple accounts (although I know a lot are) or letting people know what street corner I'm tweeting from, so I don't think I'll be trying beta 4.

    When they decide to re-do the UI I'll give it a try then.

    I moved to TweetCaster after the battery drain from UB. If the drain is fixed, I might go back.

    what we can expect from Beta 4....


    Beta-4 Is Being Prepared for Released!
    Fri, 08/07/2009 - 06:46 � CodeWarden This release deepens support for Twitter features and takes further advantage of the capablities available in your BlackBerry device.

    Below is the list of features and bug fixes that made it into this release. We didn't get ALL of the capabilities we wanted into this release, see the bottom of the page for items we are still working on.

    Multiple Accounts - You can now configure multiple accounts, each with their own set of on-device preferences.
    You can now BLOCK people!
    Video Integration - We have partnered with TwitVid.com to offer you an outstanding video integration.
    Goto user - You can now enter twitter users name and go directly to their timeline
    URL Shortening - we've integrated with bit.ly so you can easily send those long URLs now and not bump up against the 140 limit
    MUCH faster photo uploads, significantly improving the user experience.
    Use of the internal GPS is now solidly supported with proper fallback to cell tower based location when GPS isn't available.
    Icon Caching If you have and SD card, we will cache avatar icons on the card, increasing the speed of timeline displays and reducing network traffic.
    You can now select pictures and videos that have already been take and are on your device. The interface shows the most recent at the top and offers a preview so you can verify it is the picture/video you expected!
    When composing a tweet you can now insert symbols from a large selection of commonly available characters such as smiley's, hearts, etc.
    Integrated advertisements - Please note, the ads are there to support the freely distributable version of �berTwitter. Users that purchase �berTwitter will not have advertisement in their version.
    We've streamlined the friends and followers lists
    You can now see both the number of friends, followers, and tweets sent when viewing the details of a tweet.
    Replying to a DM from the timeline will now correctly send a DM and not a regular tweet
    Fixed the bug in reply all where it would truncate some twitter user names
    Added reply all to the menu when viewing a tweet
    The list below includes features and capabilities which just didn't make it into this release (not enough time in the day!). We will be working on these for the next release though.

    Integration into the BlackBerry browser such that URLs can be included directly in a tweet from the browser menu.
    Saved searches - integrate the new Twitter saved search API. Searches saved via the Twitter web site will be useable on �berTwitter and vice versa
    Twitter name menu - Type '@' and a list of your friends automatically pops up allowing selection

    Its not a BlackBerry specific problem from what my understanding is, Twitter was fighting off a DoS attack all day yesterday.

    Looking forward to this for sure. �bertwitter managed to really impress with Beta 3 so 4 can only be better. I'm a bit dissapointed that its not working properly post DDOS fiasco but tweetgenius is working well. I think I might stick with TG until Beta 4 come out.
