Got this set on Chaand Raat:

An iPhone look-alike, it is has an interesting user interface that is flash-enabled. Full touchscreen with large, clear, animated icons.

Pros: Extra large screen, 5MP camera, high speed video capture at 120fps, TV-output, great image and video editing softwares, document viewer (ppt, word, pdf, flash)

Cons: No WiFi, very weak software availability (LG generic OS), TV output only for videos, no joystick/D-pad (although zoom acts as a scroller)

Overall, I would say it is an interesting and different cell phone. Recommended for someone who likes to try new things.

Thanx guys.

It has a document viewer only.

Price has recently dropped from 27.5K to 21K.

@hsnmz: I agree, video recording is awesome, esp at 120fps u can capture moving objects in slow speed with good claruty.
