Microsoft Database Reveals LG E900 and C900
Korean phone maker LG has yet to confirm what the LG E900 and C900 phones are, but if the leaked database is to be analyzed, it seems that the two handsets are going to be WP7 devices.
Microsoft Mobile is currently busy with the development and support for their operating systems: Windows Mobile and the newer Windows Phone 7. With the upcoming launch of WP7 this coming October, it is expected that a large range of handsets will be available for buyers to choose from.
While the spec differences will not matter much (thanks to the pre-released minimum hardware requirements and chassis form factor), being able to choose a phone from a wide range of trusted phone makers is certain to be a great factor in marketing the new OS.
LG’s name has already been one of the leading brands in the WP7 handset department –and by leading, we mean the very first to announce their handset, show off the device in images, and later, even release a quick video demonstrating what the device looks like. The LG Panther is far ahead of its competitors in the industry, as WP7 handsets from many other manufacturers do not even have names yet. And those that did still have not released any other hardware details.
Unfortunately, the same can be said about the E900 and C900. Without any confirmation from LG or Microsoft about the two devices, it is difficult to determine if they really are upcoming smart phones or if they are completely difference devices. There are some early presumptions that one of the devices might already be the LG Panther’s designation code -which means that there really is a second LG WP7 handset that is currently in the works.
According to Microsoft, the Windows Phone 7 operating system is expected to launch during October and many devices that use the OS will be launched during the holiday season.
