Social networkers will be happy to hear that the Facebook client for touchscreen Windows Mobile devices has been updated to version 1.2 to include some small, but much-needed features such as adding Likes and comments to friend feed items.
The app itself has only been on Windows Mobile since last May, but it seems like it has all the usual features one would need, like checking friend statuses, replying to messages, making wall posts, and uploading pictures. If you’ve had a chance to check out Windows Mobile 7, you’ll know that Facebook is already well-integrated into much of the experience, but older handsets will still deserve some lovin’.
You can grab Facebook for Windows Mobile free in the Marketplace, with localizations available for English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Dutch, Polish and Greek.
