Not sure if I'm missing the difference between this and the official Twitter client. They basically took the official client and reskinned it. I'm not a fan of the Tapbots style, so maybe it's not aimed at me, but I much prefer the cleaner official client.

#15The demo video is really well done. Does anyone knows who produced it?

#16I'm surprised they still released this after the twitter "don't build clients" email from a few months back.

#18However, I've found myself swiping for conversations only to find there were none.
It's especially true of high volume tweeters like @acarvin because it splits the conversation up.
Possible Solution?: If it could pre-load ahead and save me the multiple instances of finding nothing.

The differences are there; superficially, all clients display tweets in a timeline, and provide the functionality that Twitter.com does. The differences abound, though. Check out http://shawnblanc.net/2011/04/tweetbot-review/ for more.
I don't know what the name of the Tapbots style is, but it's a little heavy for my tastes.
On the plus side, it definitely has more personality than the official client (which has lost personality over time -- though the iPad app is pure genius), but the UI/UX is over done, IMHO.
Each to their own. :)
