i am in the uk

got it working by downloading the fennec beta .... i have to use facebook touch website.
also to add a new place (such as 'my house' 'my work' etc) i have to use default browser and visit facebook touch.

thanks to all who gave input towards getting this working on n900

I'm unable to add a new place via Fennec (get Object>object) and it fails. Using MicroB still get the coordinates error.

I added checkin functionality to the effing application. Now you can do facebook places checkins from the N900.

Hi, I had same problem in microB, that error with lattitude.

But i got it working on my n900

I am in UK, on vodafone, got latest firmvare (debranded)

what I did, was install maemo-geocashing from app manager

and install firefox from ovi store

then go to touch.facebook.com in firefox, and dont go to places, just click icon next to your status update line, and it should works.

after check in, if i wanted to check in to different place, I had to close and reopen firefox and do it again.

but working fine

i did not tested in microB vrowser yet, will let u know later if anyone interested

Places works well on Effing and Opera 10. whatever for my N900. Not so good to mostly not at all on Firefox. I am pretty sure I updated with the fennec stuff already.

Working for me too with Firefox 4 Beta, thanks for the tip. Anyone know why this wouldn't work with MicroB or Firefox 1.1?
