Hello and welcome!

If you remove your facebook account thru phone settings - account & then download the facebook for android from the market, you can choose how to sync contacts...

Welcome to Droid Forums!! We are happy you joined up

Like STG said you can select to not sync them when you are setting it up.

Another option is to go into your contacts and press menu, then select display, scroll down and look for Facebook and uncheck all contacts. At least I am pretty sure the dx has that same feature.

tried that- and it wouldnt let me---:-(... thats why i came here and asked the question... and found the answer--- delete the email i used when setting it up-under settings- and then downloading the facebook app as a stand alone app... whoo ho--- that worked!!!
