I almost never use the LinkedIn iPhone app. The functionality is so limited that I'm almost always better off using the browser.
Huge congrats to CardMunch!
It's always nice to see LinkedIn make an acquisition like this as they are quite rare for their company. It's too bad because LinkedIn could definitely use the infusion of some more entrepreneurial talent and it would give startups another good exit path. The last few times LinkedIn has raised money, they have cited future acquisitions as one of the main reasons, but CardMuch is the first one I've heard about in a long time.

Yeah baby! Mazeltov Bowei, Sid, Sudeep, and Manu!
The down side: LinkedIn's current blackberry app is really terrible, I'm sure anyone who's used it will agree with me on that. (Certainly the appstore reviews do.) Can't speak to their Android/iPhone apps... are they any good?
