Getting there...
About the only things left I'd like are full screen lion support and streaming support.
Great Twitter Client, my favourite now
With Tweetmarker now working fully and correctly I can finally use Osfoora perfectly with my mobile Twitter clients. Has all the features I need and almost all the features I want. I hope we will see hashtag muting in the next release.
I really like the design of the app and the ability to fine tune the font sizes, excellent to have inline pictures as well.
Not quite ready for primetime...
Overall, this client has a lot going for it. But there are some key points that it falls short on. The absence of streaming is a little bit annoying, but not a dealbreaker. The thing that kills me is that it doesn't update accounts in the background, so if you don't have a window open for each of your accounts - they won't all update and trigger Growl notifications. If you only have one account, this is fine - but if you need to manage multiple identities I suggest looking at something more mature. But keep an eye on this one, it'll be good when it's feature complete.
