It is official: the final version of the Facebook app for Windows Mobile powered devices is ready for deployment; just that we don’t know when this will actually happen (UPDATE: the app has gone live and is availalbe for download). The official word is that Facebook for Windows mobile will be made available for free “very soon”. We might not have an official release date for you, but what we do have is a list of features you can expect to get with this final and official version of Facebook for WinMo.

Profile
The app lets you view your profile, update your status, write on wall, add images and videos, and last but not least, send messages.


News feeds
You can compose, view, reply and delete news items.

Photos and videos
As previously mentioned, you can add photos and videos to your profile. On top of that you can tag people and places (geo tag), auto upload to Facebook, read photo details, post comments. Please note that only the final, official Facebook app for WinMo will feature the option to upload videos from your phone to Facebook.

Wall
Post items to the wall, delete items from the wall.

Friends’ profile
The app will provide the option to invite friends, comments on a friend’s status, view someone’s full profile, send an email, an SMS text or call from within a profile.

Email
View emails, send new emails and reply to incoming emails.

Notifications
View, poke and accept notifications.

Requests
The option to confirm requests and invites.

This is the list of features and functionality you can expect to get from Facebook for Windows Mobile, the final and official version. While you eagerly wait for the app to be released, why not take the time to see what kind of apps you will not get in the upcoming Windows Marketplace for Mobile?
