As if a new Facebook app wasn’t enough for us Crackberry addicts…
As if Facebook wasn’t enough yesterday, we also got a Gtalk and Yahoo! chat client update up to version 2.0. After installing Gtalk here, there are decent upgrades, mainly displaying profile pictures, as noted by Robb, but I’m sure there’s plenty of other new features there that regular Gtalkers will readily spot.

I went right up an downloaded them both, but I can’t get the YIM client to work (it says it’s installed…). The Gtalk app looks like, noted, that it’s mostly an interface update.
Is this RIM trying to keep ahead of the iPhone? Push out more native and useful apps head of Steve and the iPhone crew? I think so, since while the iPhone is cool and has been hailed as the next big thing, the Blackberry still rules the roost for business applications. This can all change in a heart beat if Apple starts releasing more apps and let’s third-parties develop cool tools for it.
I’m sure that my fellow blognation editor Oliver Starr has deeper insights into this, but seeing the raft of new mobile apps coming out these are some exciting times, but I will still content that it is going to be data rates that will be the major roadblock to mass adoption.
