Facebook's Smartphone...Would you buy it?
Rumours are that FB is buliding its smartphone and This is the third iteration of Facebook's smartphone plans--from hardware to software and back to hardware again.here is the preview of the Facebook's smartphone!(maybe another iPhone!am I exaggerating?)

No matter what the Facebook's phone will be like at length,It's certainly under the shaow of Apple(poaching more than half a dozen former Apple iPhone and iPad engineers ),just like this so-called running Android on iphone smartphone.
I wonder if anyone will buy such a copy of iPhone and begin to worry about the fate of the facebook's smartphone.

interface of facebooke's smartphone!

Damn, that "facebook phone" looks a lot like an iPhone...idk though, I could be wrong...
Anyways, no I would not buy it, because it's not real. Facebook won't be making a phone...it would be utterly pointless and a waste of their time and money. Not sure why or how these idiotic rumors even get started.

They did hire the former apple engineers. But it could be just to improve the mobile apps.

Considering that everything so far on facebook is nonsense, I would not even consider a phone from them. My advise for them is to give it up right now and use their ipo as a reference.

Absolutely not. I can see it now:
"By using any of the features on this phone, you are hereby agreeing to allow Facebook access to any personal data, which includes, but not limited to the following: contacts, full names, email addresses, pictures, etc. You also hereby agree to upgrade your profile to Timeline. Timeline is a new innovative way to make sharing easier with your friends."
They still haven't got me to upgrade yet, and they're not about to anytime soon.

you scared me,really? but I think if facebook wants to get the data,they always can find a way! like some popular apps like instagram(FB have introduced instagram already)!hope they will inform you before they do this!

sounds like a briliant choice but can you give up one of the most popular SNS website all over the world,they have introduced instagram and is on their way to take Opera in,sounds like a little crazy and ambicious! their ipo value decrease but resonable as Linkedin or Groupon are suffering the same situation!
