LG has released a new clamshell handset, the LB1200.

Just like the Samsung D600, the new LB1200 is a DMB (Digital Media broadcasting) phone, so the users will be able to watch live TV while on the move. Besides that, the phone allows you to rotate it and set it up just like a portable TV. The phone can be set up at an angle that lets you place it on the table and watch TV easier and more comfortable.

Unlike the usual handsets that only rotate on a single hinge, the LB1200 has a much stronger gear hinge that allows the phone to detect movement and thus automatically open or shut. The phone has a lot of cool features, like a 2 megapixel digital camera, MP3 player and a QVGA primary display.

Unfortunately, just like the Samsung D600, the LG LB1200 will probably only be available in Korea in the near future.
