LG Cooky upgrades Cookie with bad spelling

When we see "Cooky," we think "kooky" -- as in, not normal, not quite right, a little crazy. Insane in the membrane, if you will. Think is, at 10.9mm thick, there's nothing crazy about wanting LG's latest domestic-issue touchphone, even if it is just a mildly-upgraded version of the KP500 Cookie available globally for the past few months. The thing's got a 3 megapixel camera, microSD slot, and a 3D-ish UI with accelerometer support just like its older brother, but the T-DMB tuner, and 7.2Mbps HSDPA give this version the edge. Throw in that big Google Cooky logo, LG, and you've won our hearts. Looks like it'll be available in June for about 590,000 won ($383, give or take) -- let's just hope it includes a dictionary.
