Any Other Twitter Clients for Palm OS?

I recently downloaded the Twitter client MoTwitt, which used to be called TreoTwit. It's freeware and has a well designed look. But there are some differences when compared to other Twitter clients on other mobile devices.

Differences
The client doesn't take up a lot of room, which is nice. Setup for your username and password is easy. And typing in the window works well, and posting a new tweet is simple. The issue is how the program works for doing anything else in Twitter other than posting a new tweet. Most Twitter clients for Windows Mobile, iPhone and desktop clients for Windows and Mac allow you to see a list of tweets from those you sent and those from others twittering to their followers.

MoTwit has functions that call the default browser (Blazer), so you are taken over to the browser to see the Twitter mobile page - http://m.twitter.com/home. This does work, but it can be confusing and cumbersome to switch back and forth between two interfaces for sending and viewing tweets.

Other clients
Using my Treo 750 with ceTwit, all of the functions are part of the program, meaning everything you do in Twitter is all self-contained in the program. No jumping over to Internet Explorer to view tweets. I would like to see MoTwit offer this. They have a good start. I understand it's freeware and the time the developer has to work on it may be limited, but us Twitters want a full mobile client.

Any Others?
For now, it looks as if MoTwit is the only Palm OS Twitter client, unless I have missed others in my search. A call goes out to the Palm OS developers for more Twitter options. I know I would like to see more offerings available.
