And how long has Tweetie for Mac been stuck at v1.x, with no support for newer Twitter features (not even new style re-tweets)? A year ago, Tweetie was awesome, but Loren is getting paid by Twitter now, so if you want independent Twitter clients to survive (and thrive), you have to allow other developers to try to make a living.
If I hadn't just purchased a Kiwi license, Hibari would have been a strong contender for my dollars - it's a very nice, polished first effort, and I look forward to seeing how it develops. Twitter clients aren't exactly so expensive that buying another one in a few months is going to break me........
