A phone similar to the Ke850 with Windows Mobile 6? Sounds like Apple is getting even more competition.

I am really looking forward to all these new LG phones comming out.

I wish it would come to the US without the Prada lable.

I wonder how all these Non-stylus/Non-keypad/Non-keyboards are when you want to text/e-mail?

You can use a finger with stylus phones now, why the big deal?

I know what you mean. I'm sure the Prada software is amazing but LG will have to watch how they manufacture their phones or they will look like "girl only" or "girl geared" phones.
Hopefully they will make something about the phones that catches the eyes of the male gender as well.

the iphone has a few cool innovations, but honestly its really not all that powerful of a device.

so the lg/microsoft hookup is a great developmnt for capitalism, but Im dissapointed at the windows choice. True innovation would occur id LG got crazy and decided to build a iphone-esque device running somthing stable, like linux, with an open source code so that developers could easily create broad software for it.

I dont thing another WM device is going to trump the iphone simply due to the initial hy...

I agree. The iPhone is going to be huge. Mostly in part to Apple's marketing techniques. The touch screen phones LG has on the way will do well but I also know that when you're up against Apple, you're dealing with something everyone knows about.

The day after the iPhone was announced, I had 3 customers ask me if we were going to get it. People are already really excited about it. I just hope these new LG's will cut back on some Cingular's excitement build-up.

There's nothing "sweet" about Microsoft Windows on any platform.
