I just wrote a propose to facebook to set back the full facebook site as the default site for the N900. Let's hope that they won't ignore it...

Nothing that sends you to the full site though
You can get to that site from mobile -> touch -> full.

At is at the bottom of the page, below the settings link IIRC.

Absolute PITA. To add to the pain there is a link to download a bookmark for facebook for the N900. This takes you to getjar ->
sorry your phone is not support..


WTF!

Anyway, will change my bookmarks to see if this helps - brings up a little "bug" though - why can't we edit bookmarks??

Plus, if I go from mobile -> touch -> full and then click on a person's name to see their profile, it throws me back to the mobile site. I think fb is broken (again).

Noticed that when I tried to select friends list too.
Sure they will fix it soon, but hopefully is happening to more than just N900 users so we are not left out!

Change the URL might not fix the problem, as facebook can still track you down by user agent, and even the http://www.facebook.com/home.php will recognize you eventually.

The solution to the problem(once and for all) is to change the user agent of your MicroB.

Procedure to change user agent:
1) In the address bar of MicroB, type about:config
2) you'll be prompted a warning of warrant void something, do not proceed if you're afraid
3) in the filter, type user
4) you can find "general.useragent.vendor" at the bottom, select it and press enter
5) change the user agent in the dialog box to something else like "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US)" (without quotes)

Now browse ANY site without having to worry about switching to mobile page.

Hope this help.

You can edit them by pushing and holding, then a menu appears.
