I am unable to find and add the user @mjgearguy on Spaz' WebOS client! How can I do this? When I type any of the following into Spaz' search box, I get zero results:

mjgearguy
@mjgearguy men's journal gear guy

How do I add this user?

    I'll explain the steps and results:

    1. I start up the spaz webos app

    2. I click the magnifying glass

    3. I click in the search box and type (without quotes) "mjgearguy"

    4. I press the "Search" button

    5. A circle appears showing progress

    6. The circle disappears and shows nothing

    If I instead try something like "lancearmstrong" I get a ton of results.

    well, I can search for him fine. I made a video here:

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/361393/mjgearguy.mov

    This *is* with a current dev build, so I guess it's possible that
    something changed, but I don't think anything with search code is
    different.

    Maybe something specific with your account? I dunno tho. If you're
    technically inclined you can use novaterm to get into the device and
    tail -f /var/log/messages to watch for an error, but atm I can't
    replicate this.

    Sorry!

    Weird!

    I don't think it's my account though because when I use Twee it shows up!

    Well, unfortunately, unless you'll be in my neck of the woods soon and
    I can log into your device while you check it, I can't really do much.
    It works fine here, and I don't see any reason it wouldn't on yours.
