Looks Cheap ....
Although LG has some years under their wireless belt with both AT&T and Sprint... It's always been "close but no cigar" for their smartphone endeavors.
The Optimus Series has been hit or miss even at the entry level market it had been targeted for.
I really want there to be more competition than the usual suspects Apple, Samsung, HTC etc... But the other manufacturers have not been stepping up to the plate and its not like they had to write the OS... Google handed it to them gift wrapped and on a silver platter ...
Put MORE thought into the look and feel of the device. Make it more than functional, make it beautiful without being an over styled mess and if you must mark your territory on the OS and bloat it out with a skin .... ...

I hope its not as bad as Samsungs Touch wiz Android. Sometimes its more than specs but how the whole thing comes together.
I remember the excitement when LG released their 'projector phone' (I don't even remember what it was called).....boy that went nowhere fast....I never sold a single one....

Sorry.
sorry LG, HTC already has the quad at 1.7ghz. Looks like a mini version of the intuition. to block like for my taste. I hope for Lg's sake they do a good job on this phone because samsung and HTC are really making some nice phones. This phone just looks "cheap?". you see an iphone and it looks like wow they put some thought into the housing to and i hope learns that people buy looks and the feel of the phone as much as nice specs. Just my 2 cents anyways
where, exactly, can one purchase this HTC phone you speak of?
