I’m not too sure this is completely kosher, but I just received an email saying that: “3 has ended its introductory INQ prepaid offer if $179, and the INQ is currently available for $249 prepaid with unlimited Facebook”. Yet the original press release made no mention of it being introductory at all. More »
I don’t know what I was expecting from the INQ1, Three Mobile’s successor to the Skype phone and a tool for all almost all your social media needs on the go. But for some reason, the solidly built handset with its comfortable and intuitive interface actually surprised me. More »
Kids today. They live and breathe Facebook, eat MySpace for breakfast and sleep in a bed made from Twitter tweets. That’s why they’re going to flock to the new INQ1 phone like tabloid journalists to Stephanie Rice’s Facebook profile.
The INQ1 (which is made by INQ, a new mobile phone manufacturer backed by Hutchison Whampoa) brings Facebook, Windows Live Messenger, Skype and email to the core of the user interface, as well has supporting RSS feeds and widgets for other social networks. The phone itself is a HSDPA-enabled handset with a 3.2MP camera, 2.2-inch QVGA screen, Bluetooth, USB connectivity and up to 324 minutes talk time and 327 hours standby. It weighs in at 100 grams and measures 47.6 x 14.4 x 97.0mm. It has upgradable memory to 4GB, comes in silver or black and has a two-year warranty.
If this sounds like your kind of social experience, the INQ1 will cost $179 on 3 prepaid, or available on contract from $39 a month, which includes a heap of stuff like free Skype to Skype calls.
Full presser is below for all you young’uns and Facebook addicts. More »
