CNET Editors' review
Of the Twitter apps available for BlackBerry, ad-supported UberTwitter is a current favorite. Why? Not the ads, which thankfully aren't too obtrusive. UberTwitter enhances the basics of reading, tweeting, retweeting, and follower management with the ability to e-mail tweets, view trends, and easily see others' tweeted images without leaving the app. UberTwitter gets kudos for taking photos and videos from within the app. It also has the now-standard URL-shrinking option.
There's still plenty of space for growth. Having the app manage multiple Twitter accounts is on the top of our list, and support for Twitter lists, a way to download links to an internal browser, and showing the image above the tweeter's profile are also high-ranking druthers.

"Top of my list for Twitter apps on a BB."
Version: UberTwitter for BlackBerry 0.925
Pros
* add My Location
* one button RT
* add pics / take pics [posted on tweetphoto]
* post video
* Trending TopicsCons
The only con worth mentioning is that it doesnt push @Replies to your phone, meaning if you set it to refresh every 1 hour to dont get those replies till then.
Summary
I've tested every Twitter app out there and Uber is hands down the best. RIM should acquire them and make it a native app on the BB.
