Still searching for a decent Facebook application for your WinMo phone? Well, in case you’ve missed this, some developers at XDA have recently supplied a rather awesome Facebook app.
Now, apparently this app is actually made by Microsoft themselves and has been stripped from the yet-to-be-released version of Windows Mobile - 6.5 (Build 21169). That being said, this app is in fact a pre-release version with ‘many known bugs’ (though, I couldn’t personally tell you what those bugs are as I’ve not actually run in to any myself, but see the list of known problems after the jump). I can tell you, I’ve been using it for a bit now and I really love it!
[ad]
It’s got five different tabs:
Home – Where you can view your News Feed, Status Updates, and Updated Photos
Profile – Where you can view yours and others Wall, Info, & Photos
Friend – Graphical/Text list of all your friends & what they are doing
Inbox – Here you can view your Inbox, Outbox, Notifications, and Requests
Phonebook – This is a really cool feature where you can call any of your friends that have their phone numbers linked to there FB Profile.
You can poke, leave comments, view photo albums, upload pics/vid, and of course, update your status.
