If they are in the BB Contact - I already have their phone number!!! Now I've synch-ed everyone and I've spread out a hundred or so stupid "Andy requests your phone number" messages to contacts. It didn't say anywhere that it would ask them for their contact info!!! Why did they make it that it requests people’s phone numbers when you link their BB Contact with the FB Contact?

Those APIs simply aren't available to the average developer. So, with that said, this app certainly WILL suck because the email notification that FB sends to your phone is *NOT* intercepted and handled accordingly by the FB app. Completely worthless. I don't need or want my INBOX cluttered with notifications from FB. That's what the app is for. In the end, RIM needs to update *their* FB client. The ability to comment on status is all I really care about. Why is this 1.5? Where is this developer's earlier versions of this app? They didn't make the version my Storm has...

I have to say it is quite nice. I particularly like the integration of calendar events. So far about 20 contacts have been sync'd with Facebook. I just wish there were a few more additions you can do on the app eg. edit an event, upload pics etc. A nice update. 8/10 Hi All,
