LG Electronics has unveiled its new OnePhone II (LG-KF1100) model, an updated version of its previous OnePhone (LG-KF1000) with more Bluetooth application functions.

LG created the OnePhone to connect wireless network (CDMA) and wired (traditional PSTN) service. Basically, the phone connects to PSTN network via access points (access points are like routers which connect a cell phone to PSTN network using Bluetooth) when inside a building and automatically connects to CDMA network when outside the building or in absence of access points.

One of the new feature that this new phone adds it's the useful Bluetooth application that prevents the device from being stolen or lost, by sounding an alarm when it is separated from its headset or other hands-free devices. Users can also make free calls to their friends who also have the same handset within a range of 100m, using the ?walky-talky" function. Bluetooth function enables owners to play mobile network games such as shooting or racing with other people close to them.

The OnePhone II slider features a 1.3 megapixel camera and Bluetooth Mobile printing that allows users to print pictures directly, without a PC, and inbuilt T-Flash card slot for memory expansion.

There are no details about its pricing or availability.
