A new video showing the touchscreen-based UI of the
LG Prada phone has
hit YouTube. The phone is going head to head with the iPhone UI-wise and it shows the path that the majority of phones will look like in the years to come. It is not clear if the LG Prada is a smartphone that allows you to run native applications or just a 'feature phone'. On other mobile news, Google
released a native Google Maps application for PocketPC and MS Smartphones (
screenshots) that works better than the J2ME version.

Dear god it uses a damn num keypad for entering text: those things are godawful and that they don't use the screen real estate for a qwerty virtual keyboard is a damn shame.
I also don't know how many people would want, let alone shell out more for, a Prada branded phone. I can see that totally happening in Apple's case, though.
