At Long Last, Facebook Releases an iPad App

Vintage Facebook. Trumpet the launch, but do absolutely nothing to make sure that the user will have a good experience trying to get the app.

And if the screenshots are accurate, I'd say FB still has some UI work to do.

Here's the page: https://www.facebook.com/mobile/ipad

It links to the current app, so I guess Apple hasn't pushed out the update yet.

I don't see it in the App Store yet...

I had heard the release was held up because of negotiations with Apple over other issues. It seemed like Apple and Facebook didn't get along. Steve Jobs describe integrating facebook with ping as not happening because of the "onerous" terms of service. Also Apple integrated twitter, not facebook into ios. Is it possible that it's because Steve Jobs is dead that it's released?
