We have some good news for the future owners of the LG KM900 Arena. According to the company web site, the newly announced full touchscreen handset will support multi-touch input and will come with a dedicated graphics chip.
Although the multi touch will only be to be used on the ineternet and for picture viewing this proves this proves that multi touch is available on a WinMo handset and that the manufacturers are still working o please. And a silence for other websites constantly complaining of the lack of this feature
The dedicated graphics chip should provide faster and more responsive UI. And should compliment the WVGA display just nicely.
Also mentioned was the 8GB memory and a card slot to expand the memory further. no mention of it being hot swappable, we should hope so since LG say developing this device has taken 100 man years to develop
In case you have by any chance missed it or you need a quick memory refresh here are the rest of the LG KM900 Arena noteworthy features. Those include a 5-megapixel, capable of doing high-res video, HSDPA and Wi-Fi connectivity as well as a built-in GPS receiver. The handset will aslo offer the Dolby Mobile feature which promises “outstanding surround sound stereo”.
LG KM900 Arena is expected to start its European expansion in March 2009 but the price tag is still unknown.
