LG incite from AT&T

Looks like AT&T is trying to pull out the stops before this holiday season. I myself would of chose a different time to do it with the way the economic recession that is going on around the world. But This looks like a fun little gadget for the person who always has to have the biggest and best and of course new phone that is out on the market at the time. I haven't had a cell phone for over a year now and it is great. But some people need to have a phone and the lg incite might be the phone for you. Read the review below and find out.

Wow, I just can’t keep up with AT&T’s high end mobile phone releases. Today, AT&T and LG announced the availability today of the LG INCITE Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional device. This is the first entry into Windows Mobile in the U.S. by LG and it looks like a direct competitor to the outstanding Samsung OMNIA that is a major iPhone challenger. I just picked up the HTC Fuze on Saturday and after looking at the specs on this device think the Fuze is still better for my needs.

The LG INCITE has some pretty good specifications, including Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, 3 inch 240×400 WQVGA display, 3 megapixel camera, UMTS/HSDPA support, 256MB ROM/128MB RAM, integrated GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, and 1300 mAh battery. I don’t think the display can compare with the new VGA displays on the HTC Fuze and BlackBerry Bold.

I am interested in seeing the device though because I want to see what LG may have added themselves to the Windows Mobile OS since often manufacturers add tools and functionality that adds to the experience. This is a full screen only device with no keypad or keyboard (similar to the iPhone). It is availble for US$199.99 after a 2-year contract and US$100 mail-in rebate. The full no-commitment price is US$499.99.
