Twibble E71 App: Twibble

On any internet connected device these days you need an twitter client. I was looking one for my E71. Everyone seems to point to Twibble. This works great on the phone. I had this on my E61 too. But after using Twitterrfic on the iPod Touch, I have to ask why does all the apps look prettier on the iPod Touch? Does the Apple SDK provide an easy way to build pretty apps? Why can not S60 developers make apps pretty? Ah! Questions…

The phones I have owned...
I just got my new phone the Nokia E71. My friends generally have the idea that I buy a lot of phones. I was thinking of all the phones I have owned so far. Here is a list:
  1. Nokia 6100 – Gift from my Brother
  2. Nokia 8120 – Gift from my Dad
  3. Panasonic GD87
  4. Orange C500
  5. Sony Ericsson W810i
  6. Nokia E61
  7. Cingular 8525
  8. Nokia E71 – Gift from my Wife

I got my first phone in August, 1999. That is 8 phones in 9 years. Hmmm… I don’t think that is a lot of phones. Anyway half the phones I had have been a Nokia. I have had a couple of Windows Mobile phones. A super dumb clamshell phone (GD87). A music phone. Three phones with QWERTY keyboards…

My wife gifted me with a Nokia E71 for my birthday. :-) Thanks Teena. 

Above is a size comparison of E71 with my other gadgets: Nokia E61, Cingular 8525, iPod Touch and Nokia N810. It is the smallest. You have to hold it to feel how small it is. It has a very solid feel to it. It has got it all: US 3.5G, GPS, Bluetooth, QWERTY keyboard and is smaller than an iPhone!

The keyboard is great to type on even though it is smaller than the E61’s. I setup my Exchange account in this and all my contacts were in it almost instantly. I love Exchange Email. Now I am looking for cool apps to put in it. Let me know if there are any cool apps I should try…
