The Uk for one, has yellow pages.......not everything is American only
For evidence I have a great big fat chunk-of-a Yellow pages directory at home

Yellowpages.CA is a CANADIAN business directory, sorry to upset you but the app is called YELLOWPAGES (not .com) and you'd think it's be a localized version as it is not restricted to download within the US like some apps. America is a great country but the people in it need to realize there are places outside your border you don't yet control.

interesting you mentioned that, because Facebook just made a Blog entry on their website about it:

Facebook for iPhone also brings one important new feature to the iPhone - Facebook Chat. Wherever you are, you'll be able to see which of your Facebook friends are online and chat with them for free.

yes it is! interesting...it gives your inbox count on the icon like mail.

 

[Stardotboy]

Yup, working for me

 

[ylnick413]

yes it is!

i'm guessing that Facebook "turned on the switch" today when they released a blog discussing the native application for the iPhone.

and it's got Facebook Chat!

Here is the Official Facebook Blog about it:

This part from the blog I found interesting:

The first version of Facebook for iPhone is just a glimpse of the future. For instance, the iPhone has the ability to find where you are located, and we are looking for ways to let you opt-in to share your location and discover nearby friends.

Kind of like that Loopt app, but better - since I already have so many friends on Facebook (and a good many with iPhones!).

I agree with you, Rojo!!

Um... where do you access the Wall? I'm not seeing it. If they left that out its a pretty big oversight.

Yeah.. seriously.. no wall=no facebook if you ask me. I don't want to have to use the webapp for the wall, and the native app for everything else..?

 

[saturniphone]

Wow. I am blown away by how bad this app is. The facebook web app is one of the most impressive web apps for the iPhone. This native app is missing TONS of things that the web app has. You can't see your wall or anyone else's wall, you only see status messages on the home tab, you can't see photos, etc. And the only thing that the native app has that the web app doesn't is chat. I'm sorry, but you can't take away 80% of the functionality, add chat, and call it a day. What a huge disappointment.

I can't find it either. But hopefully they will update it soon to add more functionality. I think the description in the iTunes store even says things will be added in the coming weeks and months.
