The LG company is putting out a new line of smartphones. It uses the Windows Phone 7 system. There is not a lot of news yet about final names for the phones, but the future has been revealed in the details. Take a quick look at the new LG Windows Phone 7 here.
LG and Microsoft have been showing off their first Windows Phone 7 handset. They called it the “Panther”. Is it to spite the people at Apple ? Probably not. Apple had an operating system back in the day called “Panther”. But this smartphone is nothing similar. This new version of the Windows Phone 7 system is a replacement of the last Windows Mobile system. It is geared towards a better user experience.
The LG Panther is ahead of the pack, so to speak. It is the first smartphone to show this new operating system from Windows. Will this help to make Windows the number one mobile operating system again ? Time will tell. The Panther has a look similar to the popular Motorola Droid. The manual keyboard slides out from under the screen in a horizontal fashion. It will come in a virtual screen version also.
It is possible you will see this smartphone called the “LG WP7″ or the “LG GW910″ on other sites. Many cell phones and smartphones have “pre-launch” names given to them. This one is no different. The outside of the box on the Panther points to the “social” aspect of the device. It is labeled “Powerful Social Media Companion” in large letters. This points to being a unit that can handle social networks like Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare (their security issue is fixed for now) and perhaps others.
