I cannot download Facebook and I don't have a blackberry world icon

I have just purchased a secondhand blackberry curve 8310 from ebay and I cannot download Facebook and I don't have a blackberry world icon on the home page. When I try to download facebook it says my device does not support this function. I have tried removing the battery while the phone is still on and registering via advanced options - host routing table, but no joy. Any suggestions?

Hey sambrook,
Welcome to the forums. 
Here are the system requirements for Facebook for BlackBerry.
To use Facebook® for BlackBerry® smartphones, the following is required:
A wireless service data plan that supports SN applications
Wi-Fi connectivity
A Facebook account (an account can be created from the app)
2.7 MB of available application memory
BlackBerry® Device Software v5.0 or later
If you are using a BlackBerry curve 8310 as listed in your profile then you most likely are not running Device Software version 5.0 or higher.
From your BlackBerry browser try to download Facebook by going to www.BlackBerry.com/Facebook and choose the options that says you do not have App World access. 
Let us know how you make out.
