Jon over at TechnoBuffalo picked up a post from Pocketnow that reportedly outs the all new INQ Android device referred to as the “INQ Cloud Touch”. It’s been quite a while since we heard from Hutchison’s handset manufacturer, INQ. I thought the INQ Chat was an excellent budget device that most definitely gave BlackBerry a [...]
INQ is planning Android devices for Q4
I’m pleased to read that INQ is planning to introduce some Android devices toward the end of this year.

The INQ 1- Student Perspective Part 2
Last week I covered the basics of the INQ1 now I am going to be looking in depth at the applications in particular the social networking ones. Facebook Let’s be honest, this is probably the reason why you bought this phone. When you first start the phone you are asked to pop in your Facebook [...]

INQ1Watch: Misc musings, 3’s new mobile broadband with T-Mobile
Also at the 3 event they drew a line under their mobile broadband offerings, as in how it’s been so far, what’s coming up next and the overall story. It doesn’t really fall under the remit of the INQ handsets. Although it does ever so tentatively fall into the data services category which backs nicely [...]
