I loved Witter for a long time but abandoned it because I couldn't stand it any more. I'll give it another shot. So far as I can tell, my N900 has no good Twitter client at present -- even Twimgo and Tweego seem to be gone.
Edit: Not usable, at first glance. No saved searches, slow and clumsy, and it closed itself while I was using it. I'll keep trying.

As for the saved searches I'm working on getting them working for the next release.
I'm hoping have something into at least extras-devel this weekend for initial testing on my N900.
If all goes well we can get something into testing quickly.

... *sighs* ... finally thought I'd got witter to accept me (Typing the pin then tweeting as for some reason this usually stabilises witter keeping my account active) ... no such luck, on closing & re-opening my account's disappeared again ...

Very glad I'm not the only one having issues with the GPS & new UI ... should be easier on start-up to have GPS as optional rather than required! ... and nice to know that I'm not the only one who can't find/misses full screen mode!

... the other thing I have always noticed about witter, is that my @replies only appeared to download when I started witter ... never did seem to get any while it was running!
... still having no luck authorising witter ... but not lost hope just yet! ... thanks for putting time into this! x

I managed to break the extras-devel version last night. I've fixed the problem and witter is now back working if you are running from extras-devel. Look out for 0.3.8-5 coming down the pipe.

The newest version is a spectacular improvement!
The number of saved searches seems to be limited, unfortunately.
There doesn't seem to be a way of CREATING a saved search from within witter.

There is a new version of witter in the extras-devel repositories. At least one person has noticed a problem with it. I can't recreate the issue. I'm wondering if anyone else is running from devel and noticing any issues?

Unfortunately at the moment witter is not usable for me anymore. 
It took me ages to get it working - eventually did that by deleting the .witter files. Once I got it started and did the oauth it then seemed very slow to get the tweets back. And once I closed the app it still remained running in the background - and asking for a internet/wifi connection every few minutes.

... I have a feeling at least some of my problems authorising witter may be twitter "fail whale" type moments ... while the initial twitter page asking me tol allow or deny access appears quickly the page with the code takes it's time and often doesn't apper untill I've re-clicked allow (something I guess I shouldn't do!) ... are twitter & witter interacting at this time, or is this just a twitter issue?
