The icons on the bottom look very apple like ( spotlight search and using apple's new ui style from itunes ). The wallpaper has the look of the default of OS X's blue one. It's all touch screen based ( supporting apples patent for "touch interface" ). It could come in white or black ( like current chocolate phones do ). LG is known for both CDMA and GSM phones so this could go either way as well. This could also explain why there hasn't been FCC filings for an iPhone as it was filed under LGs name.<br><br>Call me crazy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ranch]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 6:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The LG KE850: touchable chocolate]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</guid><description><![CDATA[I thought the exact same thing when I saw the phone!

I believe they will also have MP3/AAC and a 2MP camera. It's little brother is the KE820 which does have a keypad. Some folks have said that this is ALMOST identical to the Apple iphone and that LG actually kinda ripped off the design while Apple was working on it. Apple will start showing it's phone next week so it's not beaten to the punch. The chocolate brand is one of Apples biggest competitors.  The Chocolate line will be relaunched after the holidays with the KE800/KG800/KE820 and the KG920 and KE850]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mrsalty]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 6:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The LG KE850: touchable chocolate]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</guid><description><![CDATA[Holy shit... This thing looks amazing. At the moment I have a Motorola A1200 (Ming) and really don't want to go back to not having a touch screen, and I want a new phone again.

They off several bland phones and then this one and another touch screen variant of it. The model they had was non working, and had no branding, so up until now I didn't even know it was LG. It felt very good in the hand though. Interesting to note, in regard to the obvious problem of smudging, they were asking us our opinions of some technology they were calling nano-coating. Not entirely sure how its supposed to work, but I understood it to be some kind of coating that prevents alot of smudging or scratching. Very interesting.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[eslamicolt3]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 16th 2006 3:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The LG KE850: touchable chocolate]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</guid><description><![CDATA[Looks like Nano-Coating will be protecting a lot of screens in the near future.<br><br><a href="http://konicaminolta.com/research/core_technology/nano_coating.html" rel="nofollow">http://konicaminolta.com/research/core_technology/nano_coating.html</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 16th 2006 8:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The LG KE850: touchable chocolate]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/the-lg-ke850-touchable-chocolate/</guid><description><![CDATA[All I can say ...Is WOW !
