The apps are part of Twitter's bid to extend the Twitter experience on all major mobile platforms the company says.
Twitter bought the hugely popular iPhone client Tweetie and will rebrand and relaunch it as a free official application. To be called Twitter for iPhone, the app is expected in the coming weeks, with an iPad version following soon after. Though unmentioned in the announcement, Tweetie could become the official Mac OSX desktop client for Twitter as well.
Tweetie, from Atebits developer Loren Brichter, is a $2.99 iPhone app, which in a few weeks will be rebranded as the official free Twitter client for the iPhone. Brichter, who won the 2009 Apple Design Award, will join the Twitter team to create an iPad version of Tweetie as well.
No word on official Android or Palm WebOS apps yet.
