Facebook Phone Arrives
Some Android users never have to stop getting updates from their friends, ever
The "Facebook phone" is finally available, but how quickly will it make friends with consumers?
Starting today, owners of select Android smartphones can download Facebook Home, a new interface with a suite of apps that ties users more closely to the social network.
Home includes Cover Feed, transforming the user's home screen into a scrolling feed of friends' updates, and Chat Heads to keep in touch through Facebook or text messages, even while using other apps.
