In a launch ranking somewhere below the iPhone and somewhere above the usual pay-as-you-go dross, LG's given the KP500 its official UK announcement.
Dubbed the 'Cookie' it's, "an affordable touchscreen phone", for those who don't feel like shelling out for an iPhone/Bold/5800/Touch Diamond. At £159 with £10 credit on O2 PAYG, it won't break the bank but it still manages a 3in touchscreen, 3mp camera, FM radio and all the usual gubbins. Don't go looking for 3G, Wi-Fi or GPS, though, because they're not there. More details and the press release after the cut.
The user interface is similar to HTC's TouchFlo , with a collection of widgets on offer including an on-screen clock and memo pad. It also manages handwriting recognition. If you're more of a thumb-typer, there's also an on-screen keyboard that pops up automatically when the phone's turned, thanks to the built-on motion sensor. It'll be available from next month from Carphone Warehouse , just in for Xmas.
