 Last Night Joel Hewitt, the developer of the iPhone Facebook App, tweeted that a 3.03 bugfix update was in the pipe with a new 3.1 version right around the corner.  The big feature in 3.1?  Push Notifications.  Now every time one of your 300 "friends" updates the status of their meal, you'll be notified (OK, maybe you can set it only to push direct messages - fine).

Us? We'll take a pass on the Push Notifications but to each their own.

Direct messages is an option and every other friend update notification disabled, birthdays are a must and facebook chat, all others would be an annoyance that I don't care to deal with..IMO

"Push notifications to annoy us all" - you always have to put the negative side up for anything good eh ? Titles like this are downright idiotic. If you know how to use an iPhone, go to settings and turn it off.

Dude, you can turn off push on a per-app basis.
