Facebook Phone out soon

The INQ1 Social Networking Phone is set for a pre-Christmas UK launch.

Due out very soon, this phone is being billed as The Facebook Phone as it integrates to your phone's address book and lets you follow your mates using Facebook, Windows Messenger, Skype and Last.FM. A slick mobile, with web browsing and 3G. It can also be used as a laptop modem.

Due out in December 2008 for an expected £80 PAYG or from £15 a month contract - from www.three.co.uk.

Phone for less than £5

Bag a phone for less than £5 at Carphone Warehouse. Probably the lowest-price way to get a mobile phone, you can now get a Pay As You Go handset for £4.95.

The Samsung B130 has a colour screen and GPRS Internet access, and is available now on Orange or T-Mobile.

You do have to buy £10 of credit to be able to use the phone, but £4.95 for a perfectly respectable Samsung is a steal. Available from Carphone Warehouse.
