Hey guys, any recommendations for a Twitter client with push notifications for friends timelines? The ones I can find so far only push mentions and DMs.

@unioptom,
I don't think there's any and will ever be; it was something I was looking for earlier but after consideration think it might not be too realistic.  Assuming you follow 10,000 people and each of them post a minute apart, you'll be getting push notices 24/7 and that's gonna be v v v v bad on your batt tongue.gif

Hmm, never thought about it that way before since I don't follow many people on Twitter yet but I expect to be on it more once I get the 3G so, good point *g*. I've been trying out IM+ lite on my iPod Touch on wifi and it seems to be working ok. The initialization is a bit laggy but I'm thinking it might be because it's the free version?

@unioptom,
BeejiveIM is pretty good if you don't mind paying for an app.  Plus it's on sale now so if you're planning to pay for a good IM, go fork out the $ and get that app now whilst it's on sale.

I don't follow 10k ppl on Twitter too but well I sorta thought about it when U asked the question tongue.gif  So... have U started following me on Twitter yet?! tongue.gif [desperate to get more followers!]

There you go, one more minion for your Twitter tongue.gif

Speaking of which, does BeejiveIM support Twitter? I'd be willing to pay if it does. IM+ doesn't seem to stay 'logged on' for push very long if it's not kept open. It keeps telling me that my session has expired.
