Both Twitterberry and SocialScope support twitpic... I haven't used TweetGenius yet, but I have high hopes for it.

UberTwitter does Locaion/Pic insertion; granted it's not TwitPic but that doesn't matter much to me...

1) Can't even try it because its Pay Only, no trial
2) Only on 8900 and Bold, I have a pearl
I've recently left TwitterBerry as well, but I found a much better offering with UberTwitter.
