I have been using Sparrow since christmas and I really like it. On a large screen, Mail.app just does not look right. Loving the gmail keyboard shortcuts. Seems like every app I like must be keyboard friendly now: From Things to The Hit List, from Mail.app to Sparrow, from Textmate to vim. I blame vim.

Keyboard navigation is too often overlooked in desktop apps. It should be in the very first release. A high percentage of early adopter-types are power users who want that kind of functionality. I can't tell you how many OS X Twitter clients I installed, only to promptly uninstall them (and never try them again) because I couldn't navigate them with the keyboard. The well thought out keyboard navigation was what sold me on Sparrow the moment I installed it.
