Not quite true. Be it not to used yet but the Geocoding works with the new API that hasn’t been incorporated in a lot of clients. Ubertwitter does it in its own way. I’m not sure if it uses the new API.

I have Socialscope installed running side by side with Seesmic and Seesmic is still fast. Agree about the lack of hotkeys. Feels like I scroll up for an hour to get to the top of my timeline.

The only con I can come up with is that the tweets are kinda small with no way to bump up the font size (I trying seesmic on a BB Storm)

This is a strange review. The ONLY unique feature this app offers is access to Twitter Lists; otherwise it lacks features found in the more popular clients and has very limited customization. Worst of all, it adds an icon to the top of the home screen even when the app is closed. WHAT? I thought I’d keep this as a backup to SocialScope so I can access Lists, but it’s not worth it if it’s going to run as a background app without my permission. I’m sure the other clients will soon incorporate Lists anyway.
