Everyone is raving about the app and I think it introduces some interesting UI/X elements but after playing with it for a few minutes, it just feels cluttered to me. Compare that to both tweetdeck and twitterific which feel great on the iPad...

TweetDeck on iPad is infuriating to use. It's buggy, crashes all the time, doesn't have feature parity in landscape and portrait modes, and is super slow. Yet, I keep using it because multi-column is the killer feature for me. I wish they'd fix it up though.
TweetDeck on iPhone is the same. The multi account feature was what won me over in the first place. I liked it as I could use it for managing both my personal and websites twitter account. Unfortunately that's broken right now. The issue is mentioned on their support forums, but no one at TweetDeck seem to have picked up.

The only other issue I have is a minor UI gripe. When you click on the run in background button, the progress bar and cancel button for the background tweet covers the back button on the main part of the app. It’s odd that they did that.

Yeah, from what I hear it's top of their priority list post the Android release
What did you think about Shiny Tweet's columns?
