We all know that and Facbook have worked together on the latest Chacha and Salsa phones for the western market, but for have teamed up with a top Chinese networking site and renamed the phones Weike.The Weike will get the same specifications as the Chacha and Salsa equivaolents, but will be linked up to Sina's Weibo .

The choice to use Weibo instead of RenRen seems odd to some, sure Weibo is the 'in' Twitter-like social networking service in China, but RenRen is older and more similar to Facebook.
Other China specific apps such as Weilindi and Sina Music will also come pre-installed on the Weike when it makes it debut later this year.
Below is a video of the HTC Facbook Weibo phone in action:
