Anyway, the way Microsoft is structuring WP7, it seems they want the focus to be on the OS not the hardware, hence the Chasis 1,2,3 standards. Reminds me a lot on Apple's style. Selling the experience, not the device.

In the world. But your point is true, on the software side. LG is notorious (at least in the past) for not releasing firmware updates for its phones.

              Looks boring. I've seen loads of similar devices already, I want INNOVATIONS!!! In both hardware and software. Including 3x optical zoom with 12mp camera and 1080p@30fps video recording (with 720p@60 fps).

                Looks slim for a phone with physical QWERTY, that's good.

                        at first, LG said that they wil never go for other OS, instead focusing in their own OS, and improve it. and why is this????win phone 7?

                          why the hell did they choose LG? why didn't they choose HTC or something which sounds like a Phone? When i hear LG i think of TVs or vacuum cleaners :)))

                          anyways this lets say this is a start, can't wait for HTC to bring WP7 handsets

                              Looks like we are starting well. If the first one is so nice like this, imagine when HTC and SAMSUNG will bring their WP7 devices.
