did anyone actually pay for the desktop version of twitterific?
does it give you any extras or does it just get rid of the ads?

Twitterific on the Mac (DestroyTwitter isn't bad either).
Twitterific on the iPhone for reading.
Birdhouse on the iPhone for composing and posting.

I really don't feel the need to pay for an app to access a free site, so I'm using the free versions of Twitterific on both Mac and iPod. The ads are unobtrusive, and the iPhone version quits bugging you about upgrading after a while. They do the job very nicely.

I don't use a desktop app. I always have a browser open so just use the Twitter page. Am using Twitterfon on the iPhone though.

Twitterfon here, and no dedicated desktop app - the web interface works well enough

Tweetie and Nambu, though I may try some other desktop ones. How the hell do you delete a search in Nambu?
