Promising "unlimited Tweeting anywhere, anytime, no contracts, no credit checks, no activation fees," the TwitterPeek is available today for the hard-core mobile, microblogging masses.

The TwitterPeek, created by mobile device firm Peek in partnership with Twitter, is about a half-inch thick, 4-inches-long and just under 3-inches-wide, sports a color screen and keyboard and offers five days of battery life, according to the company.

Like Peek's first, eponymous wireless e-mail gadget, TwitterPeek is a one-trick pony: It does not support e-mail or calling, but it does let users send and receive tweets and direct messages, follow new users and view images sent through Twitpic.

The mobile device sells for either $99 or $199. If customers pay the higher price, they can access Twitter through Peek's mobile network for free for the life of the device. If they pay $99, they get six months of Peek service, and after that, must pay $7.95 per month for network access. Both price points offer unlimited Tweeting.
