Facebook for BlackBerry Smartphones v2.0 (Beta 4): BBM Integration, ‘Likes’ Notifications and more!

facebook-beta-4-1

From Inside BlackBerry – Today marks the fourth beta release of Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones v2.0. Over the course of the last several months, we’ve introduced a slew of new features and functionality. Starting with the initial Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones v2.0 beta release, we introduced Facebook Chat and a brand-new interface. In the Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones v2.0 beta refresh, we added support for BlackBerry® Device Software 5.0 in addition to some new features and performance enhancements. And the Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones v2.0 beta 3 release included some of the top requested features, like Wi-Fi support, the ability to delete comments and posts, and a new prompt that appears before you delete a Facebook message.

To add to the lineup of features in Facebook v2.0, this beta release includes some highly anticipated additions.

Enhanced Notifications – Get Notified of ‘Likes’

We’ve made several improvements to notifications; the first is that you’ll be now be notified of polled items (that is, notifications that aren’t delivered through BlackBerry push technology), such as ‘Likes’ and Event Wall posts. The notification will even tell you who and what was ‘Liked’, so you’ll never miss a beat in your social life. By default, polled notifications will be set to a one-hour frequency but you can check as often as you like by selecting Refresh from the Menu.

IM+ reduce prices

IM

We have mentioned IM+ many times here on the site. If you are looking for an integrated instant messaging application then this may be the perfect time to try out IM+ Pro or IM+ Talk as they have both been slashed in price. The app is available on BlackBerry, Android and iOS and although I have used on all of these platforms before I must admit it has historically been rather expensive.

Not now though. Grab your phone, jump into your respective app store and search for IM+ Pro or IM+ Talk.

Stay connected to your friends, family and business contacts anytime and anywhere. All-in-one chat app at your fingertips!

You can read more about IM+ and see the new pricing below:

HTC Salsa Review

HTC Salsa It seems ages since we were all drooling over Mobile World Congress back in February but here we are 6 months on having seen HTC, Samsung etc release most if not all of their announced devices from MWC. HTC announced no less than 6 products at MWC including 5 mobile phones. By the end of this month all 6 (plus the Sensation) will have been released upon the world.

The one that I have here for review is the HTC Salsa. This along with the HTC ChaCha has a special feature in it, a dedicated Facebook button.

Will this extra special feature float the social needs of users? Will it’s distinctly familiar looks put people off? So enjoy my HTC Salsa review, read on and all will be revealed.
