This here video shows the new edition of the LG Chocolate, the fine-for-what-it-is cellphone that placates the I’m-not-spending-$300-on-a-phone crowd. It officially goes by the name of the LG Chocolate BL40, and it’s “coming soon,” probably around August, probably on Verizon Wireless. Probably, probably, probably.
In case you can see the video at work or whatever, the specs are as follows:
• 4-inch, 800×344 (21:9 aka Damn Wide) multi-touch screen
• Adobe Flash UI
• 5-megapixel camera (with flash!)
• Built-in Wi-Fi, HSDPA (7.2)
• The apps you’d expect like e-mail, fancy Flash-y contacts list, etc
No price was mentioned in the video, but I’m sure it won’t be too much.
I don’t know about anyone else, but that looked pretty sweet. I seen a couple of resemblances to the iphone in the GUI but hey competition is good right? Not much anyways but hey a good go at it is worth the time. Anyways, if the iPhone weren’t in existence I would definitely be interested in it!
