LG unveils an iPhone like Phone

Apple’s iPhone earned some quick popularity with its keyboard-less touchscreen interface. Now, LG along with PRADA has unveiled a phone which resembles a lot with Apple’s iPhone in terms of looks and features.

The phone has been named as “LG PRADA Phone” and boasts features such as touch screen, 2-megapixel camera featuring Schneider-Kreuznach lens, MP3 player and a music multitasking function for messaging. Unlike iPhone, LG PRADA won’t come in jumbo 4GB or 8GB variants.

Features
• Capacitive Touch Screen
• Music Player (MP3, ACC, ACC+, WMA, RA)
• Music Multitasking (Messaging)
• Video Player (MPEG4, H.263, H.264)
• Macromedia Flash UI
• Document Viewer (ppt, doc, xls, pdf, txt )

Specifications
• EDGE Tri-Band (900/1800/1900)
• 98.8 × 54 × 12 mm
• 2M CMOS Camera / LED Flash
• External Memory Slot (Micro SD)
• Innerpack Battery 800mAh
• Bluetooth 2.0, USB 2.0, USB Mass storage

The phone will start selling with a price tag of 600 Euros (approximately $777.12) across stores in UK, France, Germany and Italy by February 2007, then followed by Asian countries such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore atlate March, 2007.

For me this phone looks as sleek as iPhone, but in-terms of storage capacity and cost, iPhone wins!!

    But it’s so boring! And it’s called the Prada? Ugh. It lacks Apple’s ingenuity and appeal, not to mention the iPod. And it’s more expensive…some people might be takers, but these are the same people who buy excessively jeweled electronic accessories and swing them around like it’s just another device.

    “Look at my phone! It has carats!”

    Come on! There no comparision between iPhone and Prada.
    iPhone is much much better if you want to spend money.
