Android's Twitter Problem

Android has a bit of a Twitter problem. What do I mean by that? THERE ARE SO MANY CLIENTS!

Normally, this is far from an issue for me. I like having choice in what I do. But the issue is that even though there are a few great apps, they don't have everything I want. Falcon Pro and Robird are great examples of this. They are good, solid apps that are well designed. But they don't have multi user support. Carbon and Neatly are good, they have multi user support, but they are either buggy, or abandoned.

I wish I could have a marriage of these apps. The very slick design of Carbon, with the great ideas from Neatly (smart timeline is smart!), with the simpleness of Robird, and finally with the dev support and mass features of Falcon Pro. And of course, multi user support.

If anyone actually reads this thing that can make it happen, make it happen. Please. The Android community needs you to!

Right now, for my money, it's a toss up between Falcon and Robird. Whoever implements the multi user best (eventually? Maybe?) will be the winner. But sadly at the moment, there are a hodgepodge of apps taking up space.

Do you have any better suggestions? Are you working on something that I can beta test? Speak up in the comments!
