facebook phone... an ad for google?

just saw this post on a facebook phone running android...
The Facebook Phone is Real, and Its Name is Buffy - Liz Gannes and Ina Fried - Mobile - AllThingsD

anyways, anyone else find it ironic that facebook is using the product of it's social media competitor to make a phone? I mean sure... people might use the phone for facebook exclusively for social media, but what about everything else on the phone? All the ads/searches/money generated is from android support which goes back to google O_o...

Not that i blame facebook, they just dont want to put up the money to make their own system, bet they wished they could get into WP7 with it's facebook integration but again, they probably going for the cheapest OS for costs without foresight?

Well that's my take on it, not sure how many of you are interested in a facebook phone though lol, HTC status certainly didn't sell well imo
