Twitter for iOS getting push notifications soon

It seems that when the Twitter for iPad app launched a few days ago, a few users were accidentally blessed with push notifications. Those privileges have since been revoked, but it seemed to confirm that the option would be coming soon.

Press release:

"When we launched Twitter for iPad, there was a configuration error that caused us to offer push messages to a small set of users," wrote a Twitter spokesperson. We’ve stopped sending push messages, but users may see an option to turn on push until we release an updated version of the app."

"We’ve been testing push notifications internally," the rep continued. "Push isn’t ready yet, but we look forward to rolling this out soon."
