not sure about the bb or iphone versions, but with my Android facebook app, I'm frustrated at its limitations. I typically give up and use the full or mobile web page from my G1. I haven't tried either the opera or mozilla browser on my 770 with facebook yet.

'A potential stumbling block, however, is Nokia’s concern over how much mobile-specific user data Facebook would get their hands on. “Nokia doesn’t want the service to provide Facebook with an avenue to compile data about cellphone users, such as their Web browsing or purchasing habits…”'
'There’s no reason why the company can’t promote its own offerings, alongside deeper Facebook integration. And besides, not all markets are equal. Facebook may dominate in the US and UK, for example, but in so-called emerging markets where Nokia already rules, that doesn’t have to be the case. There’s also a nice halfway house: build more third-party services into the company’s own social apps, such as cross posting to Twitter via Nokia’s Friend View software. After all Ovi means “door” in Finnish — the tag line reads “the key that unlocks every door” — but, as I’ve said before, right now it feels too much like the key to Nokia city.'

Facebook is in talks with Nokia, the world’s largest phone maker, to embed its social network into Nokia phones. How about good Facebook (and other Social apps) support on Maemo too while you are it Nokia ?
