Time for commercials on LG Arena KM900:  My ramblings after that.

Mind the moving it and out……ohh man, I need a paper bag.

The first impression I had when LG Arena KM900 came out was ” What?! Another iPhone wannabe.  Is this the American-iPhone-Contest-American-Idol-style or something?  This better be good.”  Ever since iPhone touch our lives, all other brand company beginning to release similar concept to the masses due to its popularity but unfortunately still failed to rival iPhone.  The most of it was just knocking off specs of iPhone without really beating it to the real core.  LG Arena KM900 is not much different except with its intuitive 3d s-class user-interface as the most standout features.  The rest just the same old thing, knocking off iPhone specs.  Now you may notice I might have been a bit Simon Cowell on this or suspect that brother Steve have bribe me with stock options.  Quite the contrary, I think most of us just would like to see some originality and creativity and seeing the same concept really with a different brand is boring.  The iPhone is just mind boggling and revolutionary device that has a craved a place in our hearts.  Until then, LG Arena KM900 just another phone to make your life good.

If you think you like to be a bit Paula Abdul or Randy Jackson, do let it out at comments section.  No singing contracts needs to be given out.
