14 DAY TRIAL // LG Xenon has been introduced in the United States not too long ago, through the wireless carrier AT&T, and is now available in Canada as well, via Rogers Wireless. The touch screen quick-messaging phone can be acquired from the carrier for $80 upon the signing of a three-year contract agreement.
The device comes with a 2.8-inch touch screen display that boasts a 240 x 400-pixel resolution, while also including a sliding QWERTY keypad. In addition, Rogers also markets the handset as including a so-called Hello Interface, which can offer users the possibility to customize the home screen of the phone, as well as contacts and applications.
Other specifications of the LG Xenon include a Quad band GSM/EDGE and a dual-band HSPA connectivity, GPS capabilities, Stereo Bluetooth, a 2.0-megapixel photo snapper with video-recording capabilities, an MP3 player and a MicroSDHC memory card slot with support for up to 16GB of additional storage space.

In related news, we learn that the LG Renoir KC910E, a Chinese version of the South Korean maker's Renoir KC910 mobile phone, has surfaced on the company's official site and is expected to launch in the near future in the country.
