When we were at LG Headquarters in January, the product managers hinted at a LG Windows Phone 7 Series coming out soon in the next couple of months. I really didn’t expect LG to be showing one off only a couple of weeks later, but I see the benefit in announcing the prototype ahead of the pack – look at the buzz it’s already generated on the web.
Their inviting international tech bloggers for the LG GW620 / Eve Bloggers Forum in Seoul and now giving the world a sneak preview of the what’s to come on one of the world’s most read gadget sites, shows that LG recognises the importance of harnessing the power of social media. I’m hoping other vendors adapt a similar mantra as that will mean more international junkets for me! 
Back to the LG Windows Phone 7 Series – it looks like they’ve kept it to a similar form factor as the LG GW620. It’s smaller than the iPhone, has a QWERTY keyboard and only slighter thicker than the iPhone (which is great given the inbuilt keyboard). According to Engadget the most obvious differences (without having the final version to review properly) are the 5 Megapixel camera and additional phone buttons on the front-face. I’m confident that LG will do us proud when they finally announce the final version.
