Cingular announces LG CG300

| I like the fact more phones are starting to use OLED, but your link mentions
the phone is targeted at techie and business users. I don't see it, techies
and
business users want a smartphone at a minimum or a PDA. The only techies
that would jump on this are the ones who have never used a smartphone
and don't know what they're missing (that would be me a year ago before
I bought a 6620 and have since jumped from that to a 6515 PPC and am
now waiting to jump on the 6915 as soon as it's shipping).

Based on info at PhoneScoop.com:
* Lacks EGPRS(EDGE), a big issue for me.
* Low resolution internal screen
* Lacks ringer profiles
* Lacks SyncML
* No memory card
* No voice dialing
* External screen in color (washes out in sunlight).
* Stub antenna
* No USB
* I've been unimpressed with quality and performance of LG phones.
* I'd rather not have a digital camera in my phone.
I'd personally rank the Motorola V360 higher.

It's dangerous to generalize that way -- I consider myself quite technical,
but I personally haven't found a smartphone (and I've tried quite a few) with
enough benefits to justify the larger size, greater complexity, and higher
price. The Motorola V360 does everything I want from a phone, and more, very
well.
