It’s easy to imagine that those with BlackBerries are generally pretty addicted to digital communication in quick and easy forms. I mean, the BlackBerry is still one of the best tools for doing just that. With that go go go lifestyle and mentality, Twitter has grown off of and built up it’s popularity by relying on that exact same philosophy — quick and easy sharing of information. It seems like the two were a match made in heaven, right?
You’d think. So far however, even though RIM has pushed out official apps for other services such as IM and Facebook, Twitter has remained solely in the 3rd party realm. And then someone leaked that RIM was working on a native Twitter app…
Gazing at the image above, we can see what appears to be a legit image of what the native Twitter BlackBerry app will look like. To me, it looks a lot like the Facebook app but with some different colors — not a bad thing by any means. As far as actual hands on time for the masses goes, it’s still a crap shoot with no hard timeline or release date. Though if we go by recent chatter, a February-ish release doesn’t seem to implausible.
Keep gazing away folks.
