Re: [iPhone] Twitter app with push notification You mean you want to be notified when you're not in the app or you just want the app to update automatically?
Tweetdeck updates automatically when you're in the app... but I couldn't see a way to get notifications/badges/etc when the app wasn't active.
(DMs are "direct messages" which you get [and no one else sees] when someone sends you a private message.) |

| Since you're new to Twitter, I should mention that your Twitter account can be configured to send you a regular text message (SMS) whenever someone you are following posts something, whether it is a reply to you or not. This is called "Device Updates."
You can enable this on an individual user basis -- so if you have one person whose "tweets" are really important to you, you can enable Device Updates just for that person. My dad does this with the airline he travels on regularly -- they often post new deals via Twitter, and because the deals are often snapped up very quickly, he enabled text messages for that user.
To be on the safe side, I'd only recommend doing this if you have a fairly substantial or unlimited text plan.
