The big competitor of Apple's iPhone, the LG KE850 (a.k.a. LG Prada), was recently released and our friends over at MobileBurn published a long review with lots of info about the impressive feature phone. Additionally, they also sent us a screenshot of the LG Prada rendering OSNews.

I skimmed through the first 6 pages - my impression is that the actual hardware is quite good - autofocus camera, good build quality, touch screen etc. But then, on each page, the phone seems crappier and crappier - plagued by poorly thought out software. My analysis: rushed to the market.
So I skipped to the conclusions. The phone actually has a "recommended" rating, with a rather vague "rockstar" motivation. It seems that the device infuses the user with "desire".
I like that. I know that feeling. I have a Nokia 6111. A technically rather bland, inadequate phone. But I wouldn't change it for anything else on the market, today or in the near future. There simply does not exist any other phone that instills me with enough "desire". There are only a few phones each year with this quality - the Chocolate, the RAZR, the (for me at least) 6111, the SE W880...
Again, I like that. A geek inside and out, I still never got why tech must be beige-box-boring. My next phone? Prada or iPhone or whatever fancy is available in the next 12 months. Treo, Blackberry, SE or Nokia smartphones - please god no...
