Facebook launched an official Java app that's
universally compatible with a wide range of
feature phones. Facebook also made
arrangements with 14 carriers for free online
access through the app. Today almost every smart gadget has access to
Facebook. But since the smartphone market is
smaller than the feature phone market, the next
logical step was Facebook to go Java and jump
onto the cheaper phones. The Facebook app for feature phones is
compatible with a wide range of phone models
and you can get if from this mobile address: m.fb.snaptu.com/f. Facebook has made arrangements to ensure a
head start for its app. A deal with 14 separate
carriers ensures that their customers will browse
Facebook fro free through the app - at least for
the first three months. The carriers that participate right from launch are: Dialog (Sri Lanka) Life (Ukraine) Play (Poland) StarHub (Singapore) STC (Saudi Arabia) Three (Hong Kong) Tunisiana (Tunisia) Viva (Dominican Republic) Vodafone (Romania) Carriers soon to follow: Mobilicity (Canada) Reliance (India) Telcel (Mexico) TIM (Brazil) Vivacom (Bulgaria) Yeah, we know, it's a short list, but Facebook is
negotiating with other carriers as well so expect
this list to be expanded. Until then, you can still
use the widely free image-less Zero Facebook found at 0.facebook.com if your phone has even a simple HTTP browser.
