    This makes me want to pull out my SE/30, the one with 8 MB of RAM and a Nubus ethernet card which we used as a web server back in college, and turn it into a tweet terminal. Of course, I would then also need a twitter account...

    "and Twitter... self-consciously modern online service that would've seemed ridiculous in the age of the Bondi Blue iMac."

    riiiight, because the concept of running ones own personal BBS that is linked up with other peoples BBS's was just totally alien to our primitive minds back then... #grackle68k

    @nutbastard: Was your BBS dedicated to describing the increasingly uninteresting minutae of your everday life?

    I'm in the age of the unibody aluminum iMac and I still think Twitter is ridiculous. #grackle68k

    @Michael:

    agreed. i signed up for twitter, mostly just to secure the user name. can't figure out why anyone would bother to use it for anything.

    if every day narcissism is a glass of wine, twitter is crack cocaine. #grackle68k

    A little part of me enjoyed going back to 9.2.2 for a little while on my cobalt iMac. Of course, the thing was mainly just a word processor and DVD player, but it was nice. #grackle68k

    Nobody seems to have noticed that for a device dedicated to Twitter, you need to press shift to make a #. There are only two symbols you use for Twitter (@,#)-- you would think that they would have dedicated a key to each. #twitterpeek

    The real question is, is it possible to flash this thing to the Pronto firmware, and still keep an active lifetime subscription? That wouldn't be such a bad deal. #twitterpeek

    @telepheedian: Someone with a TwitterPeek (that is, some poor sap that bought one) should give it a shot with the USB-TTL upgrade cable - the 1.08 software is at [www.geekypeek.com] and is the Classic firmware. I don't think Pronto is available. #twitterpeek

    Y'know, the one issue is - all they're doing is taking their old Peek Classics and just shoving TwitterPeek software on 'em, from what I can tell.

    There's literally no hardware difference between this and Peek Classic or even Pronto. All it is is software. And at $100 and $7.99/mo after the first 6 months? Fuck that.

    PSST - the Peek Classic can *also* do this at a cost of $20 or whatever - AND you get *EMAIL*!

    To Mr. Sarva, what are you smoking? I don't like being woken up twice in the middle of the night by my decent, respectable smartphone being told about your Fisher-Price toy of a device. But hey, whatever suckers you can reel in that are too driven into Twitter doom... #twitterpeek

    @dragon: ONE: Thanks, Brian.

    Might I also add TracFone into the mix? Just go buy a crappy $10 Tracfone and some unit cards and there's your goddamn Twitter device. Oh, and it can do mobile Web, email, SMS, and a phone! #twitterpeek
