I'm thoroughly enjoying the new Tweetie 2.0 for the iPhone. I'm finding it much more responsive and it's now my iPhone Twitter App of choice. The new feature list is impressive, to me it's almost a new App.

If I might digress slightly.

I purchased Tweetie for my Mac. I paid something like $20 for it, and it's a far less complete product. For example, I often “favourite” a Tweet on my iPhone and read it on a more friendly screen. However having read the Tweet, I'd like to “unfavourite” it. Tweetie on the desktop doesn't do that.

I like paying for Applications because it gives the author a return on their work, it shows my appreciation for what they have created and gives them incentive to develop further. Fantastic.

I however expect that if I pay for something, that it's most basic features are operational. There have been several upgrades to Tweetie for the Desktop, but still no ability to unfavourite.

Why not?
