BlackBerry App of the Week: Facebook for BlackBerry Gets a Little Facelift

There’s a brand new beta out for Facebook for BlackBerry phones, serving up some version 2.0 goodness. The navigation grid has gotten a slick new overhaul, and there’s a new, easier to use notifications bar to go with a new and improved UI. You can also receive ‘Always On’ Facebook Chat Notifications, a welcome improvement to a chat interface that many find still lags behind the best. We’re betting that if you’re a BlackBerry owner, you’ve probably already seen the new Facebook for BlackBerry for yourself, but if not, check it out now as a free update from BlackBerry App World. As of now, the update is available only to those with BlackBerry 6, but users of older software will get an update sometime in the near future.
