A Facebook phone!?!?!?

I can see it now -- Customs officials and Homeland Security types will be passing anyone with such a monstrosity in their possesion through without a second thought, on the grounds that terrorists or criminals couldn't possibly be dumb enough to carry such personal-surveillance gear with them on purpose.

Hey, I want one...if it's cheap. And if I can get root access and remove the facebook software.

Before we dismiss the Facebook phone too quickly, my son just observed that I am overestimating the intelligence of the average consumer. Remember, MS has thrived for many years by not making this mistake.
