ANDROID fans in Singapore will have yet another smartphone option from tomorrow onwards - the HTC Wildfire ($498), available in black, red or white.

Wildfire was launched alongside the MeRadio app for Android that lets you stream content from all 13 MediaCorp radio stations, with album art and lyrics included. In an exclusivity agreement between MediaCorp and HTC, MeRadio on Android will be available only on HTC's phones (Wildfire, Desire, Legend and Hero) via a download from www.wemp.com.sg/htcmeradio. MeRadio will be available to all Android users from October.

Wildfire is armed with a 3.2-inch touchscreen, an FM radio, a microSD slot and a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, geotagging and flash. According to HTC, it has full Flash support for web browsing, too.

The Android 2.1 phone also touts the Friend Stream app that displays the latest content from Facebook, Twitter and Flickr to a single stream. When you view a contact in the address book, you'll see a thread of recent text messages, emails and status updates. And when your friend calls, the phone will display his/her profile photo from Facebook, status update, as well as a birthday reminder.
