Probably one of the most aesthetically pleasing and well designed iPhone sites there is. It uses iUI, a spin off from the sites designer, Joe Hewitt, which is a collection of CSS and JS to allow other developers to design sites similar to this.

iUI can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/iui/

Demo: http://iui.googlecode.com/svn/tags/REL-current/samples/music.html

Remember to look at them in Safari.

it is indeed very pleasing to the eye and it suites the iPhone UI perfectly!

I believe someone made an application launcher for this to take you direct from Springboard to iphone.facebook.com

Handy and saves a bit of time typing it in, YES! you'll say bookmark it but I think a direct launcher is nicer :D

Also means all the people who go "Can you get internet on that?" will then go "OOh can I go on facebook?" :P

did what ZuZ?

Here's the openurl app for anyone wishing to use it. I re-created the icon which was included in the original release as I didn't like the "F" size :) this is included in the .zip download.

Make sure to chmod 755 openurl when putting the Facebook.app in /Applications/

Failure to do so will result in the APP NOT WORKING!

Download (PLEASE MIRROR / SHARE ON YOUR OWN SERVERS TOO!):
