Will The LG GW990 Change the Handset Game?
There has been a lot of excitement surrounding the upcoming release of the LG GW990 mobile phone. Paul Otellini in his keynote speech at the CES demoed the phone for the first time publicly. Because the GW990 is one of the few unique offerings in the mobile phone market there has been a lot of excitement concerning it. The LG GW990 will use the Linux Based Moblin 2.1 operating system based on the Intel Moorsetown platform. This particular handset has been classified as a mobile Internet device (MID).
This is not the first time a phone of this sort has been considered. Different companies have played with the concept but never developed a product for market. The GW990 will be the first phone of its type actually available for sale. The release date is scheduled to be sometime during the third and fourth quarter of 2010.
One of the best features of the GW990 is its full touchscreen. It is a whopping 4.8 inches and has a 1024 x 480 resolution. The aspect ratio is 2.13:1 and the handset provides support for the LTE 4G Tech, which makes the GW990 have an elongated form similar to that used by the earlier LG Chocolate phones. The amount of memory that comes standard with the phone is pretty impressive, at 16 GB. Individuals who require more will be able to add memory via the phone’s microSD card slot.
The GW990 is being advertised by LG as a combination between a handset and a PC. Though it is obviously not a PC, it can perform in similar manners and is quite powerful or a mobile phone. Individuals interested in purchasing the LG GW990 will be able to do so sometime later this year. It has not yet been priced by LG but that information should be forthcoming, probably closer to the phone’s actual release date.
