High-Res Pictures Of LG's New Pocket PC Phone
We talked about this device a few months ago -- it's notable in that it has a slide-out keypad, and is apparently more compact than many existing Pocket PC Phones on the market. Now here's a beautiful set of about 10-15 high-quality pictures. Prepare to :drool:...
Gizmodo also helpfully reminds me that this Pocket PC has a 1.1MP camera. Anyone else want one too?

Nice! 8O
I would rather see a proper full thumb keyboard rather than just the number pad.
Still... :rock on dude!:

It's definitely a very cool little device. It's on the right track. The slide out T9 keyboard seems like a total waste of a great feature. Phone dialing can very easily be carried out on screen like existing Pocket PC Phone Edition devices. Having it on a slide out keyboard doesn't seem to have any positive effect.....Now make the keyboard a full qwerty keyboard and it changes the whole ball game!!

Try doing it blindly, Dave. It's HARD.  This makes it more practical as a phone, IMHO.

You know guys, this so far seems to be the ultimate PPC Phone edition.
If the specs are correct, this little thing has an additional 128MB 'multimedia' storage, 1.1MP camera (with flash!), SDIO, the flip keypad and....
BLUETOOTH + GPS!!!
I thought that the xdaII was worth waiting, but this little marvel's got my vote

No QWERTY, no sale! I like the direction of a sliding keyboard and BT though.

This won't be for me, since I am still not convinced by a phone with a touchscreen. That's why I didn't buy a P900 or a Treo 600, and that's why I won't go for this one. I want my phones to be small, and durable, and able to reside in my pockets (with change, keys, etc) without additional protection. But this looks like a very nice progress for a Phone Edition.

Thank you. I was beginning to think that I was the only one who felt as you do.
