UberTwitter Beta 4 released
http://i654.photobucket.com/albums/u...z/uber-1-1.png

It was hinted last night that UberTwitter beta 4 would be released this morning. Sure enough, it was.
UberTwitter is the #1 twiiter app for the Berry and the updates just keep getting better and better. So what's new in this beta? Glad you asked!

- 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 ÜberTwitter. Users that purchase ÜberTwitter 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
just go to UberTwitter Download on your BlackBerry to download

I agree. And the ads at the top aren't that bad either.

Hey, if I have to look at an ad at the top of an app to get it for free, then I'm all over it. :)

To tell you the truth, on a Storm, something like that might be fine. But on a 320x240 display, it might suck a lot more.

You may have a point Sun. I didn't think of that.

The ads do look bad on the Tour screen but I have gotten used to it after several days. You can beat the how fast this new version compared to TG that I was using before. Being able to send pictures during mid tweet is very cool. And with Tommy's tip about setting it to direct TCP, really makes a huge difference in speed as well.

Here's a screen shot from phone. It kind of sucks. But thank goodness it isn't affixed to the top and you can scroll without it sticking to the top. Tweaked some of the settings too make it look better too. I wish they would come up with a better logo though. I still think their logo looks ugly. BTW, here's that ad for Bryan.

Just think of that space where the ad is as one of those random, useless tweets from that one friend of yours that you always ignore, but still follow so they don't hate you!!! :lmao:
