Images of Facebook’s unannounced iPad application have been leaked by TechCrunch. Reportedly, the official application has been hidden inside the iPhone app all along. We’re impressed by what we see in the leaked photos so far; there is clearly a robust gallery feature and the news feed is rich with profile photos and status updates. TechCrunch‘s MG Siegler, who has already tested the application, says that it offers an “HTML5-rich experience” and that Facebook for iPad is a vast improvement over the mobile Web interface currently available. Facebook for iPad is expected to launch soon but an exact release date is still unknown. At least we now know the social network didn’t just skip out on one completely. Read on for two more images and check the read link for a full gallery.

    Ohhhhh Scroaty-poo-pooo aka Scroat aka Mobile aka Scroatum, stop offending the innocent.

    Dear BGR Readers,

    I, the real PAPINYC, apologize for Scroat’s lewd and offensive remark; it’s really beyond his control, you see, he’s the unfortunate product of inbreeding due to the incestuous relationship between his alcoholic Mom and his drug-addicted uncle.

    My sincerest apologies.

    PAPINYC, CtO
    (Chief tAmpon Officer for Apple)

      You make no sense. You can’t say something is better just becase it has a bigger market share. And just to be clear – I hate Apple too.

        android is better than iOS because it has higher market share. I eat paint chips.

        Having a better market share does not make a phone better. Android is very fragmented, and way more vulnerable to malware than iOS, although I hate iOS that it is too closed.

        Market share is the most important thing when determining how good an OS is.

    I wonder what the starting bid on there is for a ‘life’?

    Why does it seem like this article is about 2 years too late? Shouldn’t they already have an app for Giant iPod Touch?

      there was really no need in my opinion because it displays the full facebook page but this will come in handy when uploading pics to facebook

    Not bad at all, and the HTML5 heritage is likely designed to support 3rd party apps. Platform showdown on deck.

    Facebook’s so stupid for holding out on an iPad app.. What? Do they think the iPad won’t last??!

  • Booboolala2000

    I just use the full website version on my Xoom. Seems pretty feature full.

    Plus, isn’t Ios a slug when it comes to html5, or is that just safari?

  • Geust

  • H Fawaz

    Wonder if Mark Zuckerberg still thinks that the iPad isn’t a Mobile Device?

  • Daronte Boyd

    Hmph. Looks better than the actual Facebook itself. :I
