Facebook making phone, code-named 'Buffy'
I know this isn't related to Ipads, but there isn't really any news about the Ipad that isn't interesting besides rumors. Facebook is working with HTC to develop a phone that has a much
deeper incorporation with the social network than any phone. Nicknamed
"Buffy" after the vampire slayer of the same name, the phone will run
a tailored version of Google's Android OS. With is nothing normal because HTC
does this to many phones they produce. This phone is getting a few more tweaks
than some of the other HT phones though. We can now play Facebook apps via HTML5
support. This would permit users to play games like Farmville and Poker straight
from the Facebook app. Now we don’t have to download a separate app for each
game, that’s if there is one for it. With a name like Buffy, the Facebook
phone's assignment is clear: slay all comers. Apple might have some competition
now. That phone better be loaded to the gills with performance and a battery
life to slay the iPhone 4s or 5.
