South Koreans are so far ahead of the US in gadgetry it makes me more than a little envious.
The phone actually has two faces: phone on one side with keypad and smaller screen, large screen and multimedia keys on the other. It has UMTS support on the 2,100MHz band and GSM/EDGE support on 900, 1,800, and 1,900MHz bands, and supports a ton of audio and video file types, including the previously mentioned DivX.

Aww man, lucky South Koreans get to watch the StarCraft channel on their itsy bitsy telephones now? All we get from them is the LG Chocolate and its ugly as sin green spinoff.

I would have that thing broken in about 2 minutes.
Heck it looks like its ready to snap in half and I’m not even trying to quickly pull it out of my pocket to turn off the ringer during staff meeting.
And the antenna?

The great thing about Divx is that video qualiity is awesome, and portable. You can take divx and burn it to a dvd and watch it on your home system.
