Cell phones to drool over!

LG Touch Watch Phone

It may look like a sleek watch that sits stylishly on your wrist, but don't mistake the LG Touch Watch Phone's abilities. It is the first touch watch phone in the world to feature 7.2 Mbps 3G HSDPA compatibility, enabling high-speed data transmission and video phone calls using its built-in camera.

The Touch Watch phone offers a full touch screen interface, Bluetooth connectivity, voice recognition features and text-to-speech technology. And its screen is a neat 1.43 inches. The Touch Watch has a curved tempered glass face, high quality metal casing and is a mere 13.9mm thick.

LG says the Touch Watch is fully capable of sending text messages, making phone calls and keeping accurate time. But it is the phone's ability to make video calls -- it has the world's first 3G video telephony service and GSM Quadband network capability -- that makes it unique among similar products.

All this is achieved using the phone's touchscreen interface and LG’s intuitive Flash Interface. Its voice recognition features, which can be used with or without a Bluetooth headset, make it easier to place calls and look up contacts. The text-to-speech facility reads text messages and other information out loud for even greater convenience.

The phone also includes an MP3 player, stereo Bluetooth and a built-in speaker for playing back music files. A large phonebook and scheduler help with organisation.

The LG Touch Watch phone will be available in Europe by the end of this year.
