INQ win 'best handset' at Global Mobile Awards 2009

Hutchison handset spin-off INQ – makers of the low cost INQ1 ‘social mobile’ won the award for ‘Best Handset’ at the Global Mobile Awards at Mobile World Congress last night. They beat giants such as Nokia and T-Mobile to the prize. This is a huge endorsement for their strategy and device and comes at an ideal time for them as they look to expand internationally beyond the confines of Three’s networks. We’ll bring you some comment from the team as soon as we can prize the champagne away from them.

Other winners at the awards were the BBC for mobile iPlayer, Nokia for Sportstracker and the government of France for government leadership.
