Joe, the Facebook developer in charge of its iPhone application has posted whats to be expected in the 3.0 update, apparently it’s 98% done, so I think we can expect it really soon. (< 2 weeks, factoring in the time Apple approval takes).

• The “new” News Feed
• Like
• Events (including the ability to RSVP)
• Notes
• Pages
• Create new photo albums
• Upload photos to any album
• Zoom into photos
• Easier photo tagging
• Profile Pictures albums
• A new home screen for easy access to all your stuff, search, and notifications
• Add your favorite profiles and pages to the home screen
• Better Notifications (they link to the comments so you can reply)
• Quickly call or text people right from the Friends page
• Messages you are typing will be restored if you quit or are interrupted by a phone call

Unfortunately the “killer” feature I’m waiting for, push notification, wont be coming until version 3.1 slated for a summer release.
