The guys behind Twitter thinks their service will become so mainstream that people will be willing to buy a gadget specific to just “tweeting”. That’s how TwitterPeek was conceived.
This mobile device is a collaboration between Twitter Inc. and Peek Inc., thus the name. Imagine a Blackberry phone and service just for Twitter.
So what can it do? Well, it can do everything you can do on a desktop Twitter client (e.g. TweetDeck) but all embedded into a wireless device as shown above.
How much? The TwitterPeek sells for $99 with a $7.95 monthly fee or $199 with a lifetime of service.
That means it will be tied up with a telco. Don’t think this will be a hit in the Philippine where data charges are still expensive. The cheapest unlimited rate on Twitter is Php20/day or Php600/month using Globe Super Surf {via WSJ}.
Thanks for taking this chance to discuss this, Personally i think strongly about this and I reap the benefits of garden greenhouse structures this subject. If at all possible, while you gain data, please update this web site with new information. I have found it extremely useful.
I love stumbleupon for being able to show me this site. immediate fan now. I have viewed some really poor web sites on stumble and when I discovered this, I immediately knew it had been good! This article is entertaining especially for someone like me haha. I’ve been attempting to read a lot more these days and being able to discover a site like this is good for my education. Love what you are doing, looking forward to reading more!
@roseee siguro cool dun sa madalas maholdup-an ng phone. Because such criminals won’t be able to use nor sell this even at bargain price. Baka piliin pa nilang holdup-in yung may 5110 kesa sa owner nito.
seriously, this is cool! =)))
Naku nagsasayang ka ;ang ng panahon dito sa gadget na to I have my Iphobe3GS and I have an application to run twitter (Twitterific) where i twit every so often, why would i buy this bulky stuff? dagdag sagabal sa kamay pag maglalakad ka and besides you look so katawa tawa with such gadget…unlike pag hawak mo Iphone3GS mo na pwede mo iwagayway while talking and walikng and twitting…
bluntly said the gadget is soooo CHAKA hahahaha!
Tweetitow – Philippines #1 free twitter sms app! and now Twitterpeek http://twitterph.blogspot.com/
I can see celebs using these in the future, but to regular citizens, nahh. 9k for this device just to twit? Berkano said it all. Yung 7610 nga eh may sariling “TweetDeck-like” app. That phone would only cost you less than half of that useless twitter junk
I think the philippine market is not a good place for this. it’s expensive and i think filipinos won’t really spend money for this device knowing it’s sole purpose.
I say its a waste of money time and effort to make this device eventually it will end up like the ATT device they made almost 4 or 5 years ago when it was allowing you to be on aim and yahoo and check your emails for i think about 25 dollars a month, not worth it at all actually you couldn’t browse the net or upload or dowlnload pictures pointless…
Waste…
If you already have a smart phone, why need another gadget that all can do is to tweet? I mean, bibili ka ba ng stuffed toy na cute if you already have a real alive dog na cute din?
fring app is enough for my $200 phone to tweet, not to mention that the same gadget can make call, SMS, video, camera and internet.
