www.facebook.com/ID works for any Facebook Graph API Object, including users, pages, posts, photos and videos.

e.g.

https://www.facebook.com/19292868552 will take you to the Facebook Developers Page
https://www.facebook.com/10151403325753553 will take you to the profile pic of the above page

http://www.facebook.com/ID is the new way, and it works for all IDs I have used. profile.php is the old way (when FB URLs didn't use to be clean) and its still supported, but /ID should always work.
