Not bad. I have been using Facebook on my iPhone for a few months now and it is nice to see I have the same option when I decide to carry my Tilt or Samsung Jack. I disliked having to log in to the mobile website all the time...very time consuming compared to the iPhone app. It's a keeper.

I like the UI and how it runs, but it baffles me that they have almost completely eliminated comments from the interface. When I'm looking at status updates, there are no comments displayed, and no apparent way to make them display. If I follow a wall post or status update to the poster's wall, it will show the most previous comment, but I can't figure out a way to show all the comments for any given post. Comments are my number one reason for using Facebook, and this mobile app just ignores them. Does anyone else find that to be a bother?

I was also annoyed by that. I did find a way to add a comment to a status message, but it wasn't on the main newsfeed screen. Maybe it was on the person's specific newsfeed. I tapped on the status message and "Comment" was on the context menu.

I ended up just uninstalling the app; the mobile Web interface is fine for my needs. With a bookmark it's easy to get to, and with a cookie, I don't even have to log in all that often. If I posted a lot of photos on the go, I could see this being useful, especially since you can tag photos right from your phone.
