    Just downloaded it from the facebook website through my phone. I think they're having problems setting it up in Blackberry App World cuz it's saying 0bytes and doesn't give you and option to download it. Either ways, just thought I'd share!


    Updated:
    ~So first annoying thing it did was sync my facebook calendar events with my calendar and I had an alarm go off about an event. But there's an option to remove this so, i just took that off immediately.

    ~I can now sync pics of my friends with their facebook accounts.
    ~I can also sync facebook contacts with blackberry contacts so that if the person doesn't have their number on facebook I can still see their profile pic.

    ~The menu bar is more Storm friendly (bigger font)
    ~You can now click on pictures and it'll load them up bigger in the facebook app.
    ~Notifications now appear in my messages
    ~My blackberry contacts have been slowly syncing with my facebook buddies and it now has pics of almost everyone in my blackberry contacts
    ~It apparently only sent requests to ppl that I manually synced myself with my contacts
    ~You can now comment on ppls statuses
    ~it loads wall to wall history and pics comments with the notifications
    ~seems faster

    Apart from that..looks the exact same

    Its actually showing up in an AppWorld search too. Thing is there's no download button, and it shows as 0 bytes, version 0. :/

    installing now, looking forward to some of the synchronization, at least its progress, hopefully 2.0 won't take as long. I'm not holding my breath though.

    I like how you can see status comments and comment back within the app. That is all.

    Anyone who has the syncing on, what all does it do? I don't want to add some of the people I have as contacts in my phone... they're just there so I have someone to prank call when I'm wasted at 3am Saturday mornings (responsibility matters).

    On my facebook online, it gave me the option to find contacts through facebook using my contacts on my phone.

    it didn't add any of my facebook contacts to my phone and actually it looks like I have to select what blackberry contact should be synced with what facebook contact for it to do anything.
