The device is build-in a candybar/monoblock form factor and runs Windows Mobile 5.0 smartphone edition. The complete device is controlled with touchpanel keys and controls. Even the numerical keypad contains a touchpanel system. The first step for LG in the smartphone market was expected for some time now and it will be truth in the close future. The idea behind the device and the way in which they will work out the complete concept will be unique within the current smartphone segment."</i><br /><br />This is some good news. How many candy-bar shaped phones do we need? It's nice that we're finally seeing some flip phones entering back into the Windows Mobile arena. I'm not sure what LG is planning, but I welcome their style and originality. :D
