The teased new LG Chocolate Phone LG BL40 made a brief appearance on video. A promo video demonstrating the upcoming LG BL40 appeared on Youtube, but has been now been removed. LG teased the new Chocolate a week ago revealing nothing, besides that it will come in August. Some specs surfaced since. The LG BL40 is supposed to have a 21:9 4 inch screen with 800x345px resolution, HSDPA, WiFi and so called Active Flash UI. The LG Chocolate series is madly successful around the world. The new Chocolate is highly anticipated as the access stats show. According to the Viral Video Chart the LG BL40 video was the 4th top watched video within the last 24 hours.

We can’t verify the authenticity of the video, but it seems a little far-fetched to believe that even LG diehards out there would’ve been able to toil away making a very legit-looking promo piece for the company’s recently-teased new Chocolate in such a short period of time — so we’re tentatively going to say we think we’re looking at the real thing here. That said, what we’ve got is nothing short of drool-worthy: the rumored 21:9 display appears real (which is said in the video to be 4 inches diagonal), plus there’s a gorgeous Flash-based 3D UI, multitouch, AGPS, WiFi, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, and a glass screen surface that’s said to be scratch-proof, all packed into an impossibly thin case.

Here’s where we are today – presenting the Optoma Pico Projector!
