    lol ever since Apple released its iPhone, Samsung and LG strikes back with their own iPhone-wannabe

    LG's Prada, Viewty and KS20 has been set clear as iPhone-wannabes (don't worry, I hate Apple =P)
    Samsung has recently announced F700...also called "Croix"

    of course...they all have some features that others don't have...like iPhone has more storage space than both LG and Samsung (well...its only a matter of time that Samsung is going to release an 8gb MicroSD-HC card in January 2008)

    The LG Viewty sports a 5-megapixel, with Image Stabilizer, AF, camera with Schneider Kreuznach optics, a 120fps video camera, 3G HSDPA, 170MB internal memory, a 240 x 400 touchscreen and the obligatory music player. (coming in Fall 2007 in the UK only..possibly other European countries)
    The LG KS20 will be presented at the IFA2007...it sports a 2MPx camera, audio/video player, BlueTooth, Windows Mobile 6, 2.8 inches touchscreen
    The LG Prada...well...no offense...but it just sucks so its not even worth mentioning (it only has 8mb of internal memory...even my phone has more memory than that ((80mb)))

    The Samsung F700 aka Croix was just recently announced (and i mean it...)

    i would get any brand besides iphone/apple... for some reason i am not a fan of anything that is Apple. I rather get a Minione M8 when it comes out.. better than iphone :D

    they're so pretty but it'll be a while before they go to the States. depends on which company (if any) picks them up!

    u don't need to wait for companies here to pick one up... u can always have them imported... then get a T-Mobile/Cingular/AT&T plan and ur set...

    if u live in the major cities of NY, NJ, TX, CA, or WA... u should be able to find a local shop that's importing them and selling them with 1-2 year contracts to help cut the costs... even ebay sellers are wiling to do that ;)

    looks like i might have something to look forward to when my 1 year contract's up :D
     
  13. hmmpf... i need a new phone... and all the phones i want are 600CAD+..

    SUCKS!

    carriers in america probably won't pick up any of these phones...they aren't what the american public would want to use...i would get one of these from the a grey market vendor or from an online store

    i personally don't see what is so great about the iphone...nothing in particular stands out at me and screams you need one of these badboys

    the best chance of neone bringing these phones over would be T-Mobile bringing the Samsung one over...

    and its not so much that the iphone is a great advancement in technology... its the $60 gets u a $40 talk plan and unlimited data... UNLIMITED DATA + decent browser = pr0n on the go...-pirate

    Holy crap.....that's can't be considered a cell phone with a camera function. That's practically a camera with a phone function!
