Facebook for iPhone 3.0 will be released soon as posted by a Facebook employee in a note. The application hasn’t been submitted to Apple yet as it’s 98% completed so far. The feature list is pretty impressive and will make the application even more useful. Push notifications wont make it to Facebook for iPhone 3.0, although they’ll be implemented in 3.1, later this summer along with other missing features. There’s no video upload either in 3.0, so hopefully that too might make it in 3.1.
Here’s the feature list for Facebook for iPhone 3.0:
1. The “new” News Feed
2. Like
3. Events (including the ability to RSVP)
4. Notes
5. Pages
6. Create new photo albums
7. Upload photos to any album
8. Zoom into photos
9. Easier photo tagging
10. Profile Pictures albums
11. A new home screen for easy access to all your stuff, search, and notifications
12. Add your favorite profiles and pages to the home screen
13. Better Notifications (they link to the comments so you can reply)
14. Quickly call or text people right from the Friends page
15. Messages you are typing will be restored if you quit or are interrupted by a phone call
