TwitterBerry gets upgrade to 0.9 Beta 1

Posted by Joe on March 23, 2009 | 1 comment | Filed under : BlackBerry Applications

The Twitterholics among us — and I hear it’s a pretty common companion to BlackBerry geekdom — will be pleased to know that Orangatame Software has updated their TwitterBerry application to version 0.9 Beta 1. It has a number of new features, including Wi-Fi support on devices with OS 4.3.0 and above. It also hyperlinks the @bbgeeks portion of the message, so you can browser a user’s timeline. After the jump: the full list of upgrades, plus download links.


* OS 4.2.1+: Includes improved TwitPic support. Look for the ‘Send to TwitterBerry’ menu in the Media application when viewing images. TwitPic uploads are sent over direct TCP connections, see ‘Connection Help’ in the Settings page
* OS 4.2.1+: TwitPic progress bar, to show the progress of the upload
* OS 4.3.0+: WiFi support for all connections
* Full tweets on the list screen. No need to click to open new tweets
* Improved network connectivity, adding support for WAP 2.0
* Hyperlink “@username” in tweets to visit their timeline
* Re-Tweet tweets from timelines or tweet views
* Optional HTTPS SSL support on all authenticated requests
* Background on close under ‘Configure’
* Multiple bug fixes
* New localizations: Portuguese

There are apparently a few bugs in the software, which isn’t at all a surprise given that the software is in beta. You can download TwitterBerry OTA or to the desktop for sideloading.
