CTIA 2007
The elephant in the room, er... booth at LG this year was the mysterious "LG575" prominently displayed right at the booth entrance. With plain-as-day AT&T branding, it's not hard to guess what type of phone this is, but actual features were a mystery, since it wasn't officially being announced or talked about.
We did overhear booth reps clearly saying it will launch in two-three months. That's about all we know other than what you can see in the photos. If we had to guess, we would say this will launch at the "CU575".
Also on display was this Windows Mobile WiMAX phone:
This particular model is for Korea, but it seems relevant with Sprint launching WiMAX soon. Sprint told us here at CTIA to expect high-end WiMAX devices before we see WiMAX in regular phones, so perhaps this is a glimpse of what to expect from Sprint in the future.
LG also had this in their booth:
...which we've heard some people mistake for a "Windows Mobile Prada phone". However, if you look closely, you can see that the smooth black shell is actually a plain hand-made plastic cover, hiding the real device design underneath.
