One phone is said to have a QWERTY keypad and a touch screen while the other falls in the all touch category. Both may be launched in Europe in early 2011 and will be launched in USA by late 2011. Now I wonder why so and when will it be coming to India ? 🙂

According to an interview of Mark Zuckerberg with Techcrunch they aim to better integrate its services with existing mobile software on devices. Mark wants to create a social layer for everything and wants to go by Breadth first search.

The thing is why is Facebook trying to have a mobile of its own? What is the scope for a new mobile when already there are so many smart phones available all over. The social network is already on devices, including earlier INQ phones. What do you think? Do share your views with me.

Facebook phone- Yes or No?

After conquering many fields like applications and games now Facebook is planning to build its phone or may be an Operating system. There are so many talks going on whether what is Facebook now up to? Some saying yes they are creating a phone and some just not agreeing with others.

As quoted by Techcrunch Facebook is definitely up to something. A phone exclusively for Facebook-sounds interesting. Facebook is very much denying the news. They replied to the Techcrunch news people but I wonder why did they even care to reply if the news was not true? May be they all want to keep the news a hush-hush and let it out as a surprise. But whatever they are thinking this news has surely spread like a fire. Several news resources like ABC news,CNET etc are mentioning about it. There have been more than 335,000 Google hits since 24 hours and still counting.

According to Techcrunch Joe Hewitt of Firefox fame and a creator of Facebook’s iPhone apps, and Matthew Papakipos, formerly of the Google Chrome OS project – are busy with the phone. 🙂

Whatever the truth I do want Facebook to come up with such a phone. Imagine the kind of revenue it is going to earn and the popularity. Imagine a smart phone being more than just a phone-rather Facebook phone!

Things Facebook should remember if they come up with a phone someday can be reasonable price,available all over the world and better privacy! What do you think about Facebook phone? Do share your vies with me.
