Well, that didn’t booty long. You may anamnesis
Facebook Home, the heavily adapted Android acquaintance launched by the
world’s best accepted amusing arrangement a little over a ages ago.
While Facebook Home is accessible for download on several absolute
Android handsets, Facebook additionally partnered with HTC to barrage a
midrange smartphone preloaded with Home – the HTC First. The buzz went
on auction for $99 with a two-year arrangement through AT&T and
became accessible on April 12.
Now, beneath than a ages later, AT&T has alone the amount of HTC First to $0.99 with a two-year contract.
Surely, this agency the end of Facebook Home as we apperceive it, right?
What a flop, huh? It’ll apparently ruin all of Facebook in general,
too, and we’ll all go aback to application Friendster.
Or not. “We do promotions like this all the time,” AT&T’s Mark Siegel told AllThingsD’s Ina Fried.
Of course, the reviews for Facebook Home in the Google Play abundance
haven’t absolutely been mind-blowing, but these are still aboriginal
canicule forcomputer application that Mark Zuckerberg himself promised
would be adapted monthly.
If I were a action man – and I’m not – I’d bet that bodies accept
apparently gone into the AT&T store, apparent the HTC First, and
absitively to pony up an added $100 for a higher-end Android handset
alive they could aloof amount Facebook Home assimilate it anyway. At
$0.99, the HTC First becomes a much, much, abundant added acute phone,
though, so it’ll be absorbing to see if bodies alpha walking about with
these things.
