That's a limitation of the Facebook API.

Palm Pre / WebOS brings down numbers / email from FB also... Why is the Pre allowed and not the N900? Partnership thing? Or because Hermes is seen as a third party app and not integrated into the OS?

Those OSes are created in conjunction with Facebook, using a private API. Normal third-party apps have access to the API as described by sjgadsby.

Presumably, if Nokia were interested in a cross-promotion deal and had developers to put to work on it, it would be possible to deeply integrate Facebook using the OS itself.

If anyone has a high-up contact at Facebook, I'd be happy to talk to them about accessing that private API within Hermes.

I hope you guys can contact facebook and make it works in the future.

yea but you don't want it to pull numbers off facebook as most people do not put there correct info so 1 sync could mess up all numbers just my thought
