had a look into this and seems that storing the info would be against the TOS http://developers.facebook.com/documentation.php?v=1.0&doc=misc

But I wonder if it would be ok to pull the data in and then ask the user if they wish to have the data appear in their profile (address/photo/any other options) and if they select yes presumably that would be ok in the same way as if they entered the info manually?

Obviously if they don't accept ot the data would need to be cleared from their drupal profile.

Any idea on how to do this? or when? every login? only on initial create?

Would you want to list one facebook field to one profile field?
Its doable i guess, checkboxes on the reg page to indicate which fields they want to transfer?
