  Palm releases a much needed update to Facebook for webOS

Facebook for webOS has officially arrived on webOS. It's a great update and is almost on par with Facebook on the iPhone. Palm lists the new features as:
* Enhanced Inbox – Now, your inbox lets you compose, send, and reply, so you can always access your Facebook messages.
* Photo albums – Now you can view photo albums from all your friends, not just the photos in their news feeds. Uploading photos is easier as well, and includes the ability to add captions.
* Profiles – The new app lets you view users' profiles, whether they are your friends or not. View and post to their walls, view their information, and see their photo albums (subject to privacy settings, of course).
* Events and birthdays – Now you can see upcoming birthdays from your friend list as well as upcoming events.
* Friend search – Easily find your friends using the Friend Search feature. This takes you to their profile, where you can see and post to their wall, view their information, and look at their photos.

Our friends over @ PreCentral posted the above video showing off the latest version of Facebook for webOS.
