Facebook, popular social network is expected to come out with its own Smartphone next year. It has been reported that only a handful of Smartphone’s come with a dedicated Facebook button while others has deeper integration of the social network into the phone. It was reported that Facebook has partnered with HTC last year to work on a major Smartphone. The Smartphone has been codenamed as Buffy. When the Facebook IPO went public the company decided to focus on Buffy Smartphone. Facebook has hired a team of former Apple employees who worked on the iPhone for the Smartphone project. Buffy Smartphone is expected to be launched next year. Facebook has already worked with HTC over two Smartphones - ChaCha and Salsa where they have Facebook key and tighter integration.  Now they just don’t want to restrict themselves with just an app or mere integration with an operating system. Large chunk of people would like to see a Facebook Smartphone. Of course, it would be a great hit amongst the teens and the youth. Lets see whether Facebook will create an operating system of its own or use Android yet again. Every Facebook user would like to see a Smartphone entirely running and breathing the social network.
