Facebook for BlackBerry 3.3 now available in the BlackBerry Beta Zone
Facebook for BlackBerry v3.3 has hit the BlackBerry Beta Zone. This one doesn't offer too much of an upgrade from the current version, but who doesn't love a beta? Version 3.3 is sporting Enhanced BBM Integration which includes the ability to invite friends to BBM and share your PIN. Also included is a Photos Redesign with full-screen image viewing and a grid view for browsing. If you're a Beta Zone member you can grab Facebook v3.3 from the link below. Drop a comment letting us know what you think!!

@Adam: Article check... "share you PIN"
No worries, I've done it myself a few times. Thanks though, I'm going to head to the BZ to install the beta.

Anyone not received a keycode ??

Sharing pics works for me. Always has. Full screen view has been there too along with the grid view. The only difference I see is you can opt to post your pin on your profile.

How do you activate full screen mode?

Is this for the Playbook as well? It's also a Blackberry.

No, RIM has not put any beta software for PlayBook on Beta Zone.

I don't like usuing my personal device to test these beta apps since most of the time it mess up my phone, only if i had a extra blackberry phone just for these blackberry beta apps that would be awesome. since it won't mess up my current one with all the personal information store in them.

I guess we can expect another beta update soon, because this one is terrible! The new grid photo view shows very blurry pics and tales forever to load. The app itself seems very slow (even on my very fast wifi). I'll reboot a couple of times and see if anything changes, but first impression of this beta isn't very good for me.

You expected quick photo load times? Come on, this is RIM we're talking about. Next thing you know, you'll be expecting the video uploading to Facebook that most smartphones had over 3 years ago. But of course, we DO have BBM integration! Which is really handy when you've deleted BBM from your device because you no longer have any BBM contacts.

yeah you're right james. it's a shit beta. it's slow as hell and for every post i do, it errors out yet it still posts lol. i don't know what's wring with rims beta departments but lately they've been putting out garbage betas. it's a damn shame cause once upon a time i used to look forward to their betas but lately i just wanna avoid them cause they waste my time. too bad. :(

Liking the pictures as albums feature. Just wish I could get the Playbook to show people's birthdays on the Playbook calendar instead of just giving me a pop up alert.
It used to do this on the Playbook but doesn't after I wiped it from 2.1 back to 2.1.
Keep up the good work !!!

I second those comments peeps.
Each time a commment it says error ...
I don't like this beta Facebook it's the worst.
Rim needs to do better .I like the fact that you can post your pin on Facebook but everything else has slowed To a crawl. #kmt# I can't take it RIM YOU NEED TO ADDRESS THIS FEATURE ASAP!!!!!
You need to fix this and make the app faster and include the option to tag persons in your video uploads now.its full time you start catching up on the actual FB.
