INQ Mobile, the plucky British phone peddler, has had a turbulent year. After launching its first Android phone, the mid-range INQ Cloud Touch, to fairly positive reviews, the company was expected to launch a button-based follow up, the Cloud Q, in late 2011 in partnership with Carphone Warehouse, Best Buy and Vodafone. But it never did.
Now we can exclusively reveal that the company has scrapped the QWERTY smartphone, instead opting to focus on new hardware and software to be released later this year.
