Apple has to really sort out the appstore.

Updated apps shouldn't join brand new fresh apps in the same que. They should be seperated and the updated ones should be fastracked.
 
Why we wont see this for months

Apple will reject it because it duplicates another program an Apple employee once thought about or because it will compete with someting that may or may not be in iTunes 9 .
ATT will beg Apple to reject it because people will use it thereby causing theoretical bottlenecks in ATTs network.
Apple will insist making it wifi only.
Apple will sit on it until 3.1 is released and kick it back to the developer because it hasn't been tested in the 3.1 environment.

I am a facebook junkie and can't wait for it.
This post is so full of WIN. ;)

Can't wait to see it, hopefully it'll be... soon?
 
I hope it doesn't take too long. The current facebook app is dismally bad. I mean don't get me wrong, I still use it because I'm a facebook junkie, but it's pretty pathetic. Old messages keep showing up as unread, the same stories appear multiple times in the news feed, people whose updates are blocked on the desktop version still appear in the mobile version (has this been fixed?)... the list goes on.

Looking forward to seeing some improvements.
 
Maybe now we can click on the comment and go that thread rather than the commentor's profile page :rolleyes:
 
One thing it should have is the ability to remember your last read entry in the news feed so you can. that way when you open the app you can scroll through all the updates there have been since you last checked.

Twitteriffic does this well.
 
I'm really hoping this shiznit comes out soon.
Don't get me wrong, I dig the current Facebook app (even with its flaws), but I'm a geek. And we geeks like new, new, new.
 
'bout damn time.

It looks like there're two main pages... hopefully the second page has the status only feeds as previously mentioned.
 
When do you guys think would be a logical date and time for Apple to approve this? I'm hoping that it will be out tonight or tommorow.
 
I truly don't believe that Apple has any "fast track". Hence my agreement with the latter part of your comment.

Apple does fast track certain apps. I know this as I am a developer and know a couple of people who have been contacted by Apple and they have been told that all updates will be processed faster than others.
