Would you buy a Facebook phone?

    Hello All

    It has recently emerged about Facebook’s plans to launch a smart phone, with reports that the social networking site is working with handset maker INQ Mobile. They are planning to launch two Facebook smart phones in Europe in the first half of 2011

    Would you consider buying a Facebook phone or is this a market that Facebook should stay out away from?

    Regards

    Jo

    Of course I would!
    They will gain a good market share for sure.

    On the other hand I guess Android-based phones will have a competitive advantage over the rest if they can support the variant social trends.

    I don't really see any reason to buy one. Will it introduce any groundbreaking technology that has some worthwhile tangible purpose?

    Not really, I don't think I would buy one. That's like buying a MySpace phone. I can always access FB through my phone or from my computer...

    I don't think I would either, can't see an advantage over other phones really.
