So, unless they create a better mobile strategy, it wouldn't surprise me if share value and company valuation take a dip.

Doesn't sound very slick... maybe FB growing pains?

more like advertising pains for the end user. Facebook is the last organisation I'd trust with a copy of my passport so I edited the personal details out before posting.

This is an old Microsoft tactic, embrace and extinguish; it's what they did with novell. Offer some compatibility and allow users an easy, free route to migrate away.
