There are a number of limitations to the WM FB app; I can't describe them all but I agree they are frustrating.

I think the core of this is that WM is a less viable platform for development than iPhone, Android and BB to begin with (in terms of making money and earning market share); couple that with Microsoft's focus on Windows 7 Phone and you have a "why should we care" attitude toward anything that is available right now. I've spoken to developers who are working on apps for the 3 major platforms here in the States and when I mention Windows Mobile they just laugh. Doesn't make it right, but if you haven't invested heavily in a WM user base in the past (PocketShield, SPB, etc.) why bother now.
Thanks and good point. WM 6.X is dying, quickly. I love my TP2 but I can only enjoy yesterday's technology for so long before I start to feel left behind. Not to get off topic, but I will likely buy an EVO and a WP7 phone this year.
