As far as I know and experienced Apple in the last years, opening already closed borders is nothing they are very good at.
So I guess I’d prefer a less elegant solution to a sanctioned method, as I fear that Apple won’t offer an opportunity for that in the near future.

You were right, however, some months ago with lists in Twitter so I will trust you with this one. Maybe the Apple gods have mercy on us.

@dorian Hoping that Apple opens up the SDK to allow for functionality like that… it’s definitely possible (as in UIKit is capable of it), but I’d like to wait for a sanctioned method rather than trying to hack it together.

@Loren Thanks for the comment man! I’m really excited about this Lists feature. Hopefully, Tweetie 2.1 will also bring back the dark theme

Haha, nice … I dont really follow Twitter’s announcements so that’s the reason why I missed that one. Guess, then there is nothing more I could want from a Twitter client.

If you are reading this blog (and hopefully answering comments! ), allow me one question concerning Tweetie 2 for iPhone: Are you thinking about highlighting "@username“ and "#hashtag" in the next release in the same way Tweetie for Mac does it (grey/blue)? This really is one killer feature for me and I admit it feels unnatural in ALL other Twitter clients, when typing @ or # and nothing turns blue or grey. I fear, Apple doesn’t allow this colour change when typing in the normal iPhone text pad, but what about the timeline? Thought, this would really be cool and useful (Twitterrific does this too, however, not in such a beautiful way). And you would enforcen one consistent design, which differentiates Tweetie from other clients.

Any chances on that?

Groups, aka Lists, coming in Tweetie 2.1.

Dont think, that groups are coming (unless they are supported server side). Loren is not a great fan of groups considering his tweets concerning this matter. Not happy about that, though.
