Always taking the next step forward, LG presents one sleek and shiny mobile phone after another, while trying to innovate and bring new features as well as a very attractive design that makes their creations stand out in the crowd.

There are few people who have not heard of or wanted theLG K800 Chocolate phone which means that LG's effort to design and produce such phones doesn't pass unnoticed.

Thinking into the future, LG presented its latest mobile phone from the Chocolate series in ITU communication show in Hong Kong. Named KC1, it will be LG's first mobile phone to include support for both 3G networks and WiMax (which currently offers downlink speeds of up to 10.2MB per second) thus being the most hi-tech of its Chocolate brothers so far.

With the typically LG sleek design, featuring a touch pad, the KC1 is a Windows Mobile 5.0 powered Pocket PC phone, with a 2.8 inch QVGA touchscreen and a 2.0 megapixel camera. LG's latest will also include a MicroSD slot for memory expansion and Bluetooth, and it is also believed to support CDMA and EV-DO.

The new LG smartphone will soon be released in South Korea, just like all the other attractive phones that the people from Asia never have to share with rest of the world.

There is no information about the price of this phone just yet, but there probably will be soon enough.
