As you can see in the pic of the leaked blackberry bold touch homepage, there is a playbook in the back and it is running a tablet formatted facebook app!!!
An app would generally be better because it is more streamlined and offers a better overall user experience. I am fine with the web version, but the app would make it more accessible.
That's not an app, that's the touch.facebook.com page.
That's a nice interface for browsing FB. And there's a link at the bottom of the page to get to the full site since I don't see access to games in the touch UI.

Do you get notifications without browsing to the page?
I don't understand why people keep debating this. Everyone wants native e-mail but, but not a native Facebook app? They both serve the same purpose.
i don't understand why some want the app you are not going to get notifications with the wifi only version unless you are connected to wifi by then it is just the same as logging into the website

You got it. Plus I think it'd be annoying to get notifications to different devices. The Playbook isn't a phone. The Playbook isn't an iPad.
People need to learn to think for themselves rather than letting Apple think for them.

Wow... People are actually saying the website is better than an app? The playbook facebook app looks great. I agree there doesn't have to be an app for everything, but the facebook.com website is not suited for the playbook.

What do simple notifications have to do with "People need to learn to think for themselves rather than letting Apple think for them?"
It's a convenience FFS.
Do you get notifications to your phone...?
My comment about Apple was in reference to the vast majority of negative reviews and comments about the Playbook that directly compare it to the iPad. The Playbook doesn't need an app for everything. People want apps because they've been led to believe they need them.
If you think about how practical having notifications on a WiFi only Playbook is going to be, and the fact that you probably already get notifications to multiple other devices, it makes not having an app not such a big deal.

It's a means of communication like e-mail, sms, bbm, etc. Why are you so hard up against it?
Again as I stated you will need wifi for it anyhow I don't see the difference than using the website. If the 3G version was out I would say I expected the facebook app and notification but you guys are acting like you can't live without notifications and find it difficult to log on to a website

Again you miss my point. Why does ANYONE want ANY apps since most things can be done online (e-mail, calendar, games, etc.)?
