It seems that Ubertwitter doesn't want the RIM Twitter App getting all the spotlight. Only a day after the RIM twitter app beta was announced and a little more than a month after the release of Beta 6, Ubertwitter has given to us all Beta 7 of their popular twitter client. This release fixes many bugs from the previous build and is supposed to set up for a big upgrade in Beta 8.

Features include:

• Picture/Video Chooser - Modified to be much quicker and sort newest files to the top. Once BlackBerry fixes the bug in 5.0 which prevents us from using their built-in chooser, we will switch to that which will provide thumbnails.
• Viewing TwitLonger Tweets - Fixed bug where longer tweets were getting cut off
• Copy/Paste Links - Fixed a bug where when you copied/pasted a link from a tweet it would end up pasting the entire link.
• Avatar Uploads - Fixed a bug where some users avatar uploads would consistently fail.
• Flickr Image Support - Now support in-line thumbnails and viewing of Flickr images.
• TwitGoo - Now support in-line thumbnails and viewing of TwitGoo images.
• Pressing Enter on Uber Bar - Pressing ENTER on the Uber Bar will now select the tab.
• Friend Picker - Fixed a bug where the friend picker would sometimes not show up when pressing '@'
• Battery Drain - Fixed a bug where failures to load your friends list would significantly drain the battery.
• Short-cut to Email a Tweet - press 'z' to email a tweet!
• Spurious reboots/White Screens - Through painstaking tests with our test group we tracked down the issue that was causing spurious reboots and instability for some users.
• WiFi Only Fix - Fixed a bug where users with no data plan were unable to use the wifi only mode.
• Reply All and underscores - Fixed a bug in reply-all where users with an underscore were not getting copied properly.
• Added Cancel to retweet dialog - Added the option to select 'cancel' when being asked whether to use the new or old retweet method.
• Load More on list timelines - Fixed the 'load more' button so it actually works at the bottom of list timelines.
• Focus switch to tweet text - Changed the focus to be the tweet text and not the avatar when opening a tweet
• www.twitpic.com URL now supported - Now support www.twitpic.com for preview and image views.
• Inability to delete tweets less than 15 characters - Fixed the bug where you couldn't delete tweets less than 15 characters.
• Adding account to account list - Fixed bug where adding a new account didn't immediately show up in the account list.
• BirdNext Proxy Bug - Fixed a bug so that the Bird Next proxy will now work when posting tweets.
• New Style Retweets Truncated - Fixed bug where new style retweets would sometimes be truncated if the original tweet was close to 140 characters.
• Sponsored Content - Changed sponsored content 'bubbles' to look different then regular tweets.
• GPS failures - Fixed an issue where the built-in GPS would not be used for location.
• Exceptions when permissions were not granted - Fixed numerous issues which would be triggered if the application didn't have adequate permissions.
