It's the Facebook Phone - sort of

摘要

Well, Facebook has finally done it. While many observers were expecting Facebook to announce an actual device, it has done the next best thing. It has announced Facebook Home, a suite of apps that make an Android smartphone a Facebook oriented hub. Facebook Home will be available in the US on 12 April. Rumours had abounded before the launch Friday morning (Australian time). Many centred around Facebook's relationship with Taiwanese smartphone supplier HTC, with many expecting that company to manufacture a Facebook branded device.
