BlackBerry users earlier had access to a Beta version of the Twitter 2.0 app through the Beta zone. It looks like the app has been tested and is working fine, resulting in the final build of Twitter 2.0 going online.

More features and better functioning..

Twitter 2.0 offers a re-designed navigation bar that will hopefully help users in browsing through their Twitter account smoothly. There’s a new compose Tweet button to make tweeting a little more convenient. The search screen has been revised by adding a text search and now there are tools for finding users as well. Devices running on BlackBerry 6 have a system-wide universal search that will also give you results from Twitter. Last but not the least; the overall design has undergone a facelift giving it a nice chrome look.

So that’s what you’ll be getting with the latest version of Twitter. Probably if RIM added a feature called “free texting to friends worldwide”, we could see the BlackBerry Messenger getting some competition. Anyways, you can click here to download Twitter 2.0 for your BlackBerry device.
