One of the many, many problems with the LG Chocolate is its crappy Internet capabilities. While not a Chocolate-proper cellphone, the LG KU580 borrows the iconic cellphone’s look and feel while adding competent Internet capabilities. It’s 3G, UMTS to be exact, so you’ll be able to surf the mobile Web with ease. You’ll also find several built-in Google apps like Gmail and Google Maps, the BlackBerry version of which I recently used to navigate the windy, go-nowhere roads of Upstate New York. LG doesn’t skimp on the extras either, so prepare yourself for a built-in FM radio, 2-megapixel camera and enough multimedia options to, uh, shake a stick at? Fill in your own cliché.
Right now, KU580 is only scheduled to launch in Europe, on Vodaphone. Seeing as though Vodaphone and Verizon Wireless are one in the same, my bet, if the phone ever does make it here, will be on VZW.

It’s spelled ‘Vodafone’
OMG!!! I can’t wait!!!! :-D!!! This is so cool!!!!!
i hate chocolate
When cell phones are more reasonabley priced I will get one. They are way over priced, someone is making a fortune off the public !!
I hate the also chocolate its a crappy phone. Ive had 4 of them & all of them are messed up….
I lived in England for the past year and a half. Family members had the a version through Vodafone that looks exactly like a Chocolate. This one doesnt look much different.
And yes it IS Vodafone, NOT Vodaphone.
A lot of the phones out there have similar capabilities. It’s really dependent on a consumers personal preference as to the style of phone they want.
i think it is way better than the chocolate
is this mobile out in the uk?????
Thats gay.
