last100: INQ’s mass market ‘Twitter phone’ takes aim at overpriced QWERTY touting smartphones

    Wow this looks like a good move. Though INQ should be preparing for the wave of low cost android phones that will come sometime in the future.

    That's a fair point Daniel but so far Android phones in the US and Europe aren't gunning for the low end. In fact the kind of custom UI work that HTC, SE and others are doing probably requires faster more expensive chips and more on-board memory. "Sometime in the future" is right but when is the question. While the iPhone remains exclusive, Android phones seem to be attacking that space to fill the gap on non-iPhone carriers.
