I hadn’t realized that Facebook v1.5 for BlackBerry was limited when compared with the app on other handsets (other than the Pre, that is; there’s no Facebook app there just yet). Apparently, you can’t view photos or profiles with the BlackBerry client app, which makes me wonder why a BlackBerry owner wouldn’t just go to the mobile Facebook web page.
Well, it’s all a moot point now. Facebook for BlackBerry is now at v1.6, and it addresses these two gaps. The photo browsing also includes a swank-looking carousel view, shown below. I bet you could get pretty dizzy on the carousel with a BlackBerry trackball.
