So, in a nutshell, this would be useful for Apps such as Seemic/
Tweetdeck/Ubertwitter/Tweetie: you download the app and after the user
sets the UserPassword and hit login, the App asks Twitter for the
Access Tokens. From that moment, you may use oAuth methods to update
the user's twitter status.

Keep in mind that xAuth usage is restricted and not available for web
applications.
Access tokens work the same whether they are acquired using using using
the
standard OAuth flow of getting a request token, sending the user to
Twitter.com, and exchanging the request token for an access token or the
xAuth flow of directly exchanging password for access token.
XAuth works by passing a users screen_name and password directly to the
access_token endpoint without an accompanying request token.

Thank you Abraham. I would also like to know if I'm right here:
imagine a signin with twitter + register website for a twitterfeed-
like App. Basically xAuth needs the user credentials to ask
http://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_tokenand retrieve the Access
Tokens. So, would this replace the request tokens that would
redirect the user to twitter and then back to the app (oAuth)?. Will I
still be able to use the previous oAuth methods (I'm using a java
library) with the tokens that I receive with the xAuth registration?
Thanks!

XAuth adds a method for exchanging credentials to the existing OAuth
methods. Without Oauth xAuth would not work so no.

used
or if it's goinf to be replaced by xAuth?
