Not having had an iphone I don't know what the features it provides.  I use this facebook app but predominantly use use Tweetdeck for Android.

What does the Facebook app I listed miss that the iphone one provides?  I didn't know I was missing anything ;-)

It's fairly limited compared to the iPhone version. I personally haven't found one that is of the same standard as the iPhone app.

use the web-browser on the phone to browse their mobile website, that is better than the facebook android app.

Yeah just use the main facebook app. I don't like Tweetdeck as it doesn't have useful widgets.

What's wrong with the offical Android Facebook app? it got an update recently and now supports a lot more features including chat.

The old android facebook apps were crap but the current one is perfect.

Worst thing about the latest Android FB app is that in chat, going offline doesn't actually work. Pretty lame when all I want to is check the news feed without being hassled by friends wanting to chat.
