Help Is Calendar Sync to Facebook Events just for HTC phones?

Okay, one thing I just noticed this past weekend is, my Facebook events (e.g. birthdays) don't sync up with my Calendar on the Photon, like they did with the EVO. I'm thinking that was probably something HTC integrated into Sense that Motorola didn't with their UI.

Nontheless, I found a way to create a calendar file of all my friends birthdays, to add them to my google calendar and that worked just fine, but just wanted to point it out for those that relied on the Facebook Calendar being sync'd to remember some friends' birthdays (I know I did).
 
Drex,
I had the same thought. Luckily, I still carry my Evo with ne everywhere. What method did you use to sync the birthdays?

I just needed birthdays, so it was pretty easy:

Get this app
Birthday Exporter | Facebook

When you click on "Go To App" it has a link where you can download a file and then import that into Google Calendar. Pretty straight forward and it got all the birthdays I needed sync'd to my Google Calendar, which is awesome because I have so many people that I don't talk to on a day to day basis, but I'd still consider friends and always wanting to wish them Happy Birthday.

They have another app that you can download a CSV for contacts.
Export Friends To CSV | Facebook
