    Looks very nice, but it has no 3G support? Better wait for a version with 3 G support..but it looks like it has more specs than that other one. :)

    just went to a apple store to mess with a iphone, pretty cool, the ease of use is cool, features are good, sure they are missing some big features but its ok, after seeing the people surrounding the table with the iphone and stuff, i can almost conclude the iphone would be the dominant kind of it's type for a while lol, if something new come out with better features, they still wouldn't overcome the iphone cause of the name brand and the trust they have gained after all their products. look at what happened with the zune vs. ipod.

    Why do people like to copy apple? Stop with the iPhone spinoffs.

    well considering its not coming here for a long while, and wen it does eventually get here, it costs like double the iphone, so doubt it....

    That LG prada looks pretty cool. I reckon I'd get that as opposed to an iphone (considering they were both free and I got to pick one). Not really sure if it could overcome the iphone though (seems like its pretty decent to stand a chance - LG is a pretty good brand).

    The interface of this phone looks pretty impressive, even tho the startup color is a bit dull.

    The talk time is not spectacular for what seems to be a high end device. And it is definitely not in the same market as the iPhone, seeing it is not anywhere near media eccentric in comparison. Note the lackluster storage for that use. The similarity is the full touchscreen operation, and maybe an iPhone inspired user GUI with a Vista look.

    No chance for LG to compete with original Apple Ipod! A copycat idea. Do you know what LG means? Lousy Goods -shock LG is famous for sellling short-lived span goods. Anyone has bad experiences with LG products?

    Not commenting on whether or not who copied who... But my experience with LG so far had been bad, my previous phone, one of those early LG flip-phones, had unresolved problems which involves me being disconnect from the network -- i.e.: even though I had 5 bars on my signal thing, I cannot receive or make any calls to the point that it doesn't even RING! This same phone was returned/replaced/repaired 5 times within the first year, and I kind of gave up on it and got voice mail for the second year once the warranty was over.

    So yeah, I mean, it definitely was bad luck that I got a crappy phone, but the 5 chances it got with repairing/replacing put my confidence for the brand down to infinitestimal hell.

    What can I say, you are lucky. I am sure there are people who will say the same thing about SONY camera, HP computers etc... -rolleyes

    Depends on the products. However, Lg in general sucks in the cellphone department but i have hopes that they will eventually improve.
