Windows Mobile 7 to be released in September
Presse-Citron, a famous French tech blogger, today said on his twitter page that Windows Mobile 7 will be released in September 2010. He had gotten this info from a Design Lab at LG that he attended to.
Another thing that LG let out of the factory, was that they’ll release an Android 2.1 capable device in April. The phone will first be released in USA, and shortly after that in Europe.

LG BL40 Christmas Edition announced in South Korea
LG today announced the LG BL40 New Chocolate: Christmas Edition. The Christmas Edition has a better camera, some gold figures on the case and a chance to win over 5 Million Korean Won in prizes(about 3100€). The camera is a 8MP AF instead of the 5MP that was seen in the original edition. No word on pricing or availability yet, but it’s highly doubtful that we’ll see it anywhere else than in South Korea.

LG Crystal modded into a fish tank
Last time the LG Crystal was in pictures like this, it was in a fish tank. This time around it IS the fish tank. Some guy from China filled the hollow space inside the keyboard with water and added two fishes in there. Nice modification!

LG GD510 aka Pop announced
LG just announced their newest phone arrival, the LG GD510 (aka Pop). They claim that this device is the most compact touch screen phone with a 3″ screen.
To make it so simple, they have removed the WiFi and 3G radio chip. Both in my opinion a “must have feature” in todays touch screen phones. Instead of those, they have added a solar-panel on the back of the phone. The phone should be released in mid October in Europe, and at the end of October in the US.

LG Chocolate BL20 promotional video
In the video you can see that the LG Chocolate BL20 will come with a 5MP camera with a Schneider-Kreuznach lens. The phone will be running on LG’s S-class 3D UI, support 3G and have widgets. There will also be a Text Scan feature, for taking sharper pictures of written text. This feature will not be a OCR(sort of image to text converter), just a sharp picture.
Guess the release is just around the door when they release promotional videos like this.

The phone will be available in selected European countries in the 4th quarter of this year.
