INQ's next handset will get further up in your social networks

INQ's first handset, the INQ1, got cozy with your friends on Facebook, letting you check their updates and let them all know what's happening in your 'hood while making Skype calls and checking your e-mail. The company's coming back for more with the ingeniously named INQ2, pledging to add Twitter support into the mix in a move to get more social network-agnostic. No further details are available at this point on what (if any) other services the upcoming handset will interact with, or whether it'll have a somewhat more original name, but you can be sure we'll keep you updated.

I really don't see a need for this phone. My Samsung Rant from Sprint has shortcuts to Facebook, YouTube, Google Maps, MySpace, E-Mail, and a ton of other applications. Plus, the Rant has a full QWERTY keyboard, 3G, and a 2 megapixel camera all for under $50 dollars with a two-year contract. If this phone ever sees the light of day, it better be less than $50 dollars.
