This phone I want says it has a built in Facebook key, does that mean you need internet to use it?

For this LG Cosmos Touch I want, it says this on the description 'Facebook-Yes, Built In Social Network Key For One Touch Access'. Now does this mean that if I go on Facebook it will charge for Internet? I want mobile internet, but don't think my father and stepmother will pay for it and I don't want to make them pay for something I don't need, but just want.

yes. it will require internet, and unless it is included in your plan, you will have to use data (internet minutes)
to get it.

No, the facebook, twitter and myspace keys don't cost, they are through text messages, the social beat key does cost it combines fbook,twitter and myspace and email all into one app that costs data but the others are all through text message, you just need your special emails set up from the site like facebook.com/mobile gives you emails to send status and pictures and stuff
