Facebook for Android just updated and it's available right now. They actually made the announcement earlier today, but it wasn't available at the time. Facebook is promising that it's now quicker and easier to view photos, get messages and navigate around the app.
Improvements include:
Photos get better
Photos and albums are up to two times faster than the previous Android app. It's also easier to share photos, view comments and edit captions on the go.
Messages on top
Your messages and notifications are now at the top of your screen. You can respond to friends and stay updated without leaving the page you're on.
Menu on the side
You can quickly access your News Feed, Groups, games and apps from the new left-hand menu. The features you use most are now at your fingertips.
Upon updating and opening the application, you will have the option of a “guided tour” of the changes.

Add the feature to uninstall it and I’m sold! I’d least make it less battery power hungry for goodness’ sake.
Actually, after installing this new version, I found it could be completely uninstall; a feature that wasn’t in the previous version!
