As of today, Microsoft is offering a free Twitter application for the Zune HD. The software can be downloaded using a PC or via the wireless connection on the Zune HD. The Twitter application comes with the usual functions such as send tweet, retweet, follow/unfollow and timeline navigation. There is however, one notable difference with the Zune HD Twitter application, you can’t swear, at least not on the Zune side.
According to an update on Gizmodo, Microsoft officials are aware of the bug that abbreviates “some explicit words in tweets when viewed on the device; however these explicit words do appear in their full text on the Twitter site or on any other Twitter client.”
Apparently, the Redmond company is currently working on a Microsoft patch that will address this issue in the near future so that Zune HD users can see themselves curse rather then seeing abbreviated words.
