LG Electronics (LG), a worldwide technology and design leader in mobile communications, announced today that two of its handsets, the LG-KM560 and LG-KP330, were selected to spearhead the GSM Association’s (GSMA) Horizon Phone initiative.

These LG handsets are the first 3G models that can automatically roam in 220 countries, as they support all three WCDMA bands (850, 1900 and 2100 MHz) as well as conventional GSM bands. With other handsets it is impossible to roam across regions that use different frequencies, as mobile phones typically only support one or two bands.

LG just announced the KT610, an HSDPA and GPS equipped QWERTY device running S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1. They haven't released any images and the only things we know is that the screen is 2.4 inches and flips. Who on earth decided to release a press release without images?!

Update: After you read a million press releases you tend to skip words since they're usually the same. I shouldn't have done that in this case, Steve from All About Symbian noted that this device has a VGA (640×480) resolution screen! Certainly hope that isn't a typo.

LG’s Sprint Xohm WiMAX Smart Phone

Would be the first smart phone for Sprint’s Xohm WiMAX system? An LG rep standing by said that this sleek, Windows Mobile device–about the size and shape of LG’s Prada fashion phone–could very easily run both Sprint’s WiMAX and CDMA EVDO systems in tandem.

The Windows Mobile 6 smart phone is based on a Qualcom MSM7200 chipset (which typically has a 400 Mhz processor) and has 128 MB RAM. It’s running Windows Mobile 6 Professional, with a 320×240 touch screen. The LG rep promised “seamless handoff” between CDMA or GSM and WiMAX. Needless to say, this isn’t on any Sprint roadmap that’s been made public.
