It's hard to believe, but
Samsung doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of HTC and release a Facebook-centric "Galaxy First."
The Korea Herald reports that
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg broached the subject of creating a "Facebook-friendly" smartphone with Samsung
during his meeting with the company on Tuesday and was promptly rejected. Given that the Facebook-centric
HTC First has been one of the biggest duds of the year so far, it's not surprising that Samsung has little interest in going along with Zuckerberg's plans. One of
The Korea Herald's sources also notes that Samsung doesn't particularly want to help Facebook in its quest to become the next Google since it doesn't want to contend with any additional rivals in the mobile world.
