Fast Track To A Facebook Phone Buy INQ Mobile?

Facebook-phone-INQAs the heat around the "Facebook Phone" story gets higher, our thoughts turn to the days a couple of years ago when it emerged Facebook had been thinking about developing an actual phone. Back then, it transpired that Facebook was working with INQ Mobile on a smartphone. The phone duly emerged - the INQ1 - and did indeed have great Facebook integration. Even if it hasn't exactly been a smash hit, it's faired well enough. Indeed, HTC has also released their own Facebook phone, such HTC ChaCha and HTC Salsa respectively. INQ's runs on Googles Android operating system, but with deeper Facebook integration.When asked about the INQ phone back in 2010, Zuckerberg said it wasn't "some massive big thing". But quite clearly, a phone is now firmly on the agenda.
