但し今回のダウングレードは恐らくアップグレード箇所を可能にするために犠牲にするしかなかったのだろうとも言える。スイベル式のLCDをインストールすると当然それを支えるためのフレームがスペースをとるだろうし、低ノイズ&高速シャッタースピードを可能にする為に画素数を削減せざるを得なかったんだと思う。キャノンなりにユーザの声を元に機能のバランスを整えたカメラ、という感じ?G10 Mark II 程度に呼んどけばよかったかも?
Highlights & Coolness:
- This is an ad supported ware. You can upgrade to ad free version for $14.95
- Support for multiple user accounts.
- Shorten URL contextual menu item in the Post dialog (or option+cmd+s) is cool.
- Choice of URL shortening services include DiggBar, which is kinda new.
- Drag & Drop image submission is sweet.
- You can choose from one of 4 popular Twitter picture hosting services.
- The reply+retweet conversation UI is very very cool
- So is Direct Message browser!
- UI is fairly snappy in the first 15 minutes I tried it. (FYI, Lounge was like that, but became sluggish later.)
- cmd+N to open the Tweet dialog. Nice. I hate moving mouse around just to tweet.
- Tweet dialog includes the account picker if you have multiple accounts registered.
- cmd+shift+N to open a new Direct Message dialog.
- Direct Message dialog comes with a popup menu listing all my friends. The predictive typing feature for the popup is cool too.
- It lets me change the font size!! This is huge for someone like me who’s all about clamming as much information into a tiny space as possible.
Dislikes:
- Within the post dialog, Enter key is recognized as a return key. Why not post?
- I hate DiggBar. My friends better not be using DiggBar as the URL shortening service.
Long Story Short…:
A promising new Twitter client. I will have to test it out a couple of more days before deciding to get rid of TweetDeck and Lounge…
