LG's LH2300 Touch Web phone says "Hello UI" in Korean

Want the Internet in your pocket? Good, because that's what LG is offering to South Koreans with its new LG-LH2300 Touch Web phone. This ain't your father's baby Internet mind you, the LH2300 features a new "Hello UI" riding atop 800 x 480 pixels spread across a 3-inch touchscreen LCD. LG didn't stop with the web though as the LH2300 also packs T-DMB mobile TV, Bluetooth 2.0, microSD memory, and a jog wheel for easy page scrolling. Its 3 megapixel camera sports face recognition and anti-shake tech. No specifics on the included "high speed" data service. Nevertheless, that front facing camera's a pretty good clue that this pup won't be riding EDGE when it launches in Korea next month for a mere $600 US equivalent.

It says LGTelecom on the front, so I guess that means its EVDO Rev A. I hope this is the kind of phone we will soon be able to get through Verizons "Any app any device" program.

LG is buddy-buddy with VZW already, VZW should just bring this one to market.

Tom and LordOberton... I was thinking along the same lines. I just don't know if it will happen, even with the new "openness" at Verizon. LG and Verizon have such close corporate ties. Verizon will continue to cripple and force conformity on Verizon branded phones. And I'm not sure how willing LG will be to take a phone like this through the certification process. It could mean loss of sales for Verizon on their branded phones if phones like this hit the market. The last thing LG will want to do is upset the status quo.

But who knows. I am hopeful that this new "open" network Verizon is pursuing will be a great thing.
