The ?Facebook phone?

According to the?DigiTimes, HTC and Facebook are working on a ?Facebook phone?, saying that the HTC hardware would be paired with ?a platform exclusive to Facebook?.

This would be the third handset the two companies have collaborated on after the ChaCha and Salsa handsets, which featured a dedicated Facebook button and OS-level Facebook integration. These earlier devices were well liked by social media enthusiasts, but were a bit handicapped with too little RAM and processing power. Could we see a Facebook phone that ships with Android 4.0 and more powerful hardware ? maybe even some Beats branded?HTC headphones?for those young kids? These weren?t?HTC One V accessories, but it still could happen as HTC looks to shore up some weak Q1 results.

This next collaboration might even by branded with the Facebook name, something that Mark Zuckerburg argued against when the first two Facebook phones were just a rumour. For that reason, it seems a bit less likely that we?ll see a Facebook phone, as Facebook will want to appear neutral and not favouring any one platform over another, but it could happen I suppose.
