The phone has a strong resemblance to LG's Chocolate.

The Koreans have another nice and sexy looking mobile phone that this time comes from Pantech & Curitel and is named as the PT-S280. The device will offer its users almost the same design as the LG Chocolate and will come in a white silky color that will surely make all the ladies wave their hands in happiness.

The PT-S280, also known as the PT-K2800, features a 2 inch QVGA display, an MP3 player, a 1.3 megapixel digital camera, the Moneta suite of banking applications that will allow the user to make money transfers and check its account balance while on-the-go, a number of different user interfaces and a text viewer.

Another probable feature of this Chocolate white phone might be a self balance system of some sort, a fact resulting from the pictures of the handset released by its manufacturer. I'm joking here :), don't even think of taking me seriously on this matter, but this is just freaking me out and I have to say it: how does the girl in the picture balance those handsets, considering that one of them is also with the slider part out!!?? If I would have asked a Korean fellow I can bet I would have gotten an answer related to some kind of Taekwondo technique we people don't know about.

The happy Koreans that will want to take this one home should be prepared to spend 300.000 Wons (a sum going somewhere around 253 Euros for the rest of us, a detail meant to be taken as the info that it is because I'm pretty sure this phone will never sell in Euros anyway).
