This Android messaging phone from HTC represents a change of direction with a BlackBerry style QWERTY keyboard. It also features dedicated support for Facebook addicts and comes in at a reasonable price.
Engadget - Didn't think the HTC ChaCha's 2.6-inch screen and dedicated Facebook button were reasons enough to shell out £249.99 off contract? Well, UK friends, you might want to try this on for size. The lilliputian, Gingerbread-powered phone is landing on Phones 4u tomorrow, June 2nd, and will cost nothing -- so long as you sign a two-year agreement.
Dialtosave: UK-based Facebook addicts can now get their mitts on their very own “Facebook Phone”, as both HTC‘s ChaCha and Salsa are available to pre-order. Amazon UK are listing both handsets, and have pegged the two smartphones with a June 26th release date, one week later than we were originally expecting. Still, according to the retailer you can grab the ChaCha for just £249.99, while the Salsa will set you back £319.99.
