After a short wait, Apple has reviewed and accepted the Facebook 3.0 App Store application for user in the general public. This update brings many features that the Facebook website has had for a while, and changes the interface dramatically…in a good way. Overall, it is a great improvement upon the older application, which I found to be buggy and feature-lacking at times, in comparison to updates on the website.

Via his Twitter account, developer Joe Hewitt has announced that he has submitted the Facebook app to the App Store, and it is now pending approval. The new app, which has been a few months in the making, will have a slew of new features that will match the updates that Facebook has made to its layout in the months following the release of Facebook 2.0 for the iPhone.
