Default LG PM80: T-DMB Pocket PC with... Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition?

http://pda.nate.com/style/review/re...&jobid=&pda_os=



The LG PM80 Pocket PC ships with an Intel PXA270 312MHz processor, 64MB RAM, 64MB ROM, a 65K-colour QVGA (240 x 320) display, an SDIO/SD/MMC slot, T-DMB capabilities, and Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition. In my opinion, it has a great form factor, but apart from the T-DMB spec, it's riddled with outdated hardware (and an equally outdated version of the Windows Mobile platform). NATE.com has a review of the device posted, though it's in Korean and online translation tools aren't all that crash-hot when handling Asian languages, so here's a link to the original review and you can treat yourself to a plethora of pictures instead.

I don't quite grasp this. Is it a Pocket PC phone, or just a plain vanilla Pocket PC? :?

... with integrated (Korean) digital TV tuner. That's just about it. (No phone just yet)

Of course. There's a market for every device, right?

I'd imagine there'd be quite a few Koreans interested in this, because it's not everyday you see a T-DMB Pocket PC.

Wow, I wonder if Dell (or HTC) will try and sue them for ripping off the design of the x3/x30.
