Is there anyway you can link Facebook friends with contacts in your phonebook on the iPhone?

I wanna use people's profile pictures as their contact picture. Any help is great thanks.

I have an app called Friend Sync that does just this. Think it was 2.99 or something, works well though.

Yea there are ton of apps just search app store for facebook. You should see some. There are apps that take the phone numbers of all your facebook friends and put that in your contact list as well. And if your phone is jailbroken then get installous and download any of these apps for free.

Yeah, I noticed my Facebook started giving me the option of linking my BB address book contacts to my Facebook contacts.

Goes by phone number. Useless if you don't have it right, or an old number - I ended up with the most random people and their picture. Very buggy and not refined.

This new FB has push notifications. At first they were working, a message would pop up and all, and now it just stopped on it own? Anyone else in the same boat or know how to fix it?

this may be a "stone age" solution, but if its really important, just go to your friends profiles on your phone and use your screenshot to take a pic of their profile pics, then assign them to your contacts.
