Do more than peek
Using a dedicated device like the Peek for Twitter is a very scary proposition. Even if you can justify the $200 for the device (you wouldn't rather have that money go towards a smartphone? really?), the biggest risk of buying into something like this is the fact that Twitter itself doesn't stand still.
An investment in hardware that's designed for the Twitter of today doesn't make sense. What happens when Twitter introduces something new, like the recent announced lists feature? Planned or not, obsolescence sucks.
There are a few certainties though for Peek buyers though: less pocket/purse space, another charger to keep track of, and nothing you can't do for free using the smartphone that you should either already have or be saving up for.
Oh yeah, saying "from the makers of" is such a ethically bankrupt and pathetic way to sneak a Wired "Gear of the Year" graphic on the box.
