Have you ever tried any of Vodafone’s 360 social networking phones? While the previous devices were rather pretty touchscreen devices by Samsung, this latest leak indicates that the next one might be a square phone with a QWERTY keyboard. Apparently this is the next Vodafone 360 phone, the Vodafone Compass. Vodafone 360 gives you a bunch of social networking niceness such as the geographic coordinates of friends, the address book pulls in Facebook updates and all sorts of contact options like IM and email. One rather interesting possible feature of the phone, is that there’s a strong suspicion that the back button with the logo on the phone can react to gestures, which would be a rather cool (albeit gimmicky) feature. Details are still rather vague at the moment, but we’ll be keeping an eye on this phone for you.
