I love that Facebook was hip enough to push out a wonderful interface ahead of any other social networking sites (as far as I'm aware). They've done a fantastic job on this "app", really. Also, the iPhone just has to sit back and be itself and it helps this app look and perform so good. Oddly though, I didn't notice as much type-checking when posting on my friends' walls with the app, but maybe that's just incidental. And here I thought I would be avoiding Facebook on the iPhone. Now if we could just get a good Last.FM scrobbler and site interface for the iPhone... I think this app speaks wonders for both Facebook and the iPhone.

This is even better. I tried m.facebook.com on a Samsung A900m and quite liked it. This is even better.

Just like apple wanted people are willing to develop programs and services on the it product of the day. Sadly I still think that they need to lower the price of the phone or at least release a 3G version before I can consider this a replacement for my old 8700c.

I saw this one the other day and it did look very good. iphone just looks good and performs well too, my 8800 is looking more and more obsolete. iphone’s lack of third party-apps is forcing people to develop better and more streamlined interfaced for their web-apps.

Now we get everything, and it actually works. I guess this is why Mr. Jobs didn't think they needed an API! your link is busted: http://iphone.facebook.com (not http://www.boygeniousreport.com/iphone.facebook.com)
