@Coolbell Push email already exists on the iPhone, PNS on the iPhone can kind of offer a indirect push email I guess but it wouldn't be true push email...

Let's get some basic email pushing going and then let's worry about the rest.

this also might help todo app devs to implement a workaround for having notifications for tasks

Twitted but only with badges. Otherwise I'd get an intrusive alert every 5 seconds. Msn apps are mainly all ibwant push for.

I would definetly say skype. If I could know when some1 is calling without having to have the app of that would be awesome. And any app on my phone when a new update comes out

Tweetie I suppose would be all for me. I need backround more than anything for omnifocus, and possibly beatmaker while listenin' to iPod.

Excited for PhotoShare to get push notifications. For those who don't know, think visual twitter. Other great apps like ColorCanvas.

For me, personally, audible alerts would only be used for IM because it's a "right now" form of communication where people expect immediate responses if my status says "Available." I'd probably just use badges for Twitter, Facebook, and anything else.

Facebook and Tweetie.

And while we're at it, Loopt.

I can't wait to see how many people trim down their text plans after this comes out.

twitter and im for sure!

i emailed Loren Britcher (tweetie creator) and she said she would love to do push BUT twitter would have to do some heavy lifting on their end so we will have to see...

Facebook, twitter clients, im clients, mail.

@ropiko Problem is that /twitter/ doesn't do push notification itself. I've been trying out http://www.tweet.im/ (XMPP gateway for Twitter) and am really liking it. Sure this method lacks some features of Twitter clients (using an IM client instead), but perhaps this opens the door for a merged IM/twitter app....

I would love to test also!!! I would like to see twitter also

TWITTER! really would love to see tweetie with push notifications. like a sound when you got a tweet/reply/DM and a number on the icon that tells you how many tweets you have, and when you get an DM a pop up window would be nice:) (also disable those things would be good for those people who get tons of Dm's)
