I have a LG Fusic on Sprint and it is a Great Phone, Even has a FM transmitter in it and LG also made the new PRADA phone just released in Europe!

if they tried to make a Fusic for T-Mobile, it would suck

it wouldn't be the same on GSM

Tmobile is better off without them. They should however make a run at trying to get Sony Ericsson phones into their lineup instead.

I have heard this, before. As a CDMA dealer, LG's are some of the best, high quality phones we have. We carried SonyEricsson once, those were the crappiest phones (even worse than Kyocera) on the planet. So I guess it has to do with CDMA/GSM

Like the LgCG225? or LG CU500? (favorite phone of all time)

I think LG works great with GSM, especially 3GSM

LG CU500 is a W-CDMA/GSM phone. Could have something to do with the Qualcomm sticker on the back of that CU500

CU500 is trash... I had to exchange mine 3 times before I got one to read a memory card... LG's responses were terrible... "We recommend SanDisk", thats great and all, but their recommendation never helped my phone read the SanDisk card I already told them I had 3 of...

LG+GSM = poopie

I doubt that. Manufacturers are clamoring hard for the carriers to pick up their phones. Tmobile just chooses not to carry LG for reasons that have never been fully explained

LG honestly aren't the best phones and usually do not have strong RF.

Just because it isnt expensive or has a camera doesnt mean its not a good phone, it is what all phones are suppose to be. PHONES

It could change for next year but I doubt it. For this year, T-Mobile is going to use 6 different handset manufacturers. Samsung, Nokia, Motorola, RIM, Danger, and HTC. SE along with LG and Kyocera have been trying like mad to get into T-Mobile but they refuse to carry them.

Going to have? they've had those same manufactors (xept danger) forever, and so far i have only seen a couple of phones that cingular isn't already offering that i like.

I feel like T-mobile gets Cingular's left overs when it comes to phones.

Beacause Lucky-Goldstat products never pass our quality control testing phases so now, much like With Sony Ericsson, we don't bother.
