Today was the big day that I FINALLY got my invite to SocialScope…. and boy was it worth the wait! Bye, bye, UberTwitter. Below are screenshots and downloads (scroll down for previous versions of SocialScope). By the way, I have a Blackberry Storm, running OS 4.7.0.151. If you don’t have this device and OS, this JAD won’t work with your device!
Download: SocialScope Lite 0.9.5.44
(TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS: Blackberry Storm, OS 4.7.0.151)
- Fix: Posting does not work for some locales
Sign-On Screen:

Integrated feed of both Twitter and Facebook updates:

Facebook Screen
One noticeable bug is that the Facebook feed isn’t properly identifying your Facebook friends, so while you see the activity and status updates, you can’t tell which friend said it.

Facebook Comment Feature
SocialScope gives you the ability to comment on a Facebook friend’s activity, assuming of course, you know which friend did it.

Wondering what happened to the Storm OS .141 update we said should have dropped late last month? We had heard rumors of some problems with the OS but over the weekend we got word from a trusted ninja that the much anticipated OS .141 has failed Verizon Wireless’ testing.
Oh. No.
Too many glitches remain, so this update is supposedly dead in the water. There is no word yet on a new OS version nor any expected release date for a future update. The big question now is what RIM and Verizon will do with the Storm. Will we see another 4.7 version go through testing, will both companies ditch 4.7 and roll out an OS 5.0 update or will development on the Storm be shelved in lieu of the rumored Storm 2?
In any case, at this point we really better start to see some movement soon.

If you like Twitterberry, you will LOVE ÜberTwitter (a Twitter client). I’ve been using UberTwitter Beta-1 but just upgraded to the newly released Beta-2 software upgrade. One of the things that I love most about ÜberTwitter that I couldn’t ever get Twitterberry to work for me is the integrated picture sharing. For more info, check out my related blog post: Review: Twitter Apps for the Blackberry that Have Integrated Picture Sharing.
This latest release “rolls out a large number of new features (requested by YOU!) and from pre-release testing promises greater stability. There are still features on our list, and we will ultimately have a Beta-3, we aren’t even close to being satisfied with the feature set yet. Once you have a chance to play with it, please let us know your thoughts on missing features and any issues or bugs.”
Below is the list of features and bug fixes included in this release:
