A friendly reader tipped us off today that RIM has updated their popular social networking application, Facebook for BlackBerry. Facebook version 1.3 doesn’t come with a change log, and doesn’t seem to contain any drastic changes, but an update is still an update. You can download the latest version of Facebook for BlackBerry at the link below:

I’m still only getting the option for 1.2
What gives?
Yea me too…. still v1.2
v1.2 for me also.
Did anyone actually confirm that 1.3 was released, or is it just hearsay?
Yup, just got 1.2 from the site, not 1.3
“Friendly reader” was wrong apparently. I only got 1.2 as well. Or perhaps it’s only available for certain devices?
You guys are too slow!
It looks like they’ve pulled down 1.3 and placed 1.2 back up, which seems a little odd since I haven’t noticed a difference between the two. Hopefully it wasn’t bug-ridden.
Here is the deal. My email was down for 18hrs – RIM advised my IT department to uninstall 1.2 as there is a known conflict that can take you offline. As soon as I deleted FB for BB it worked fine. I suspect that 1.3 is the fix. Probably took it down after the fix wasn’t fixed. I would delete this from your bberry until the new version comes out – better yet buy an iphone
