“LG back in the Arena with new touchscreen mobile phone”

Recognise it?
Well, you could be forgiven for thinking it looks somewhat similar to LG’s Viewty, but it does have a few standout features in the ongoing battle to “outdo the iPhone“, (see PC Authority comparisons).
If you like crisp sound, then the Dolby Mobile surround sound might get you excited. At least now if you want to annoy fellow commuters by watching movies, the sound will be good 
If you like something different, check out the cube interface home screens (four cube-shaped rotating home screens, each one can be activated with a single touch). I’ll leave it to users to decide if the menu interface and options are easy or not.

A couple of features the iPhone may still have over it though, are, better browsing and of course, the apps store.
