Default LG's new phone resembles with Apple's iPhone

LG soon will start selling a new mobile phone that incorporates a
buttonless touch-screen resembling the much-hyped iPhone from Apple.
The LG Prada Phone, alias the KE850, features a no-button interface
with the entire phone face covered by a touch-sensitive screen.

So every PDA phone with a touch screen is an iPhone now?

Course they are.

It's weird that the phone manufacturers haven't caught on to that yet
though.

Phones are becoming items of personal technological jewellery. Like
watches and fountain pens before them, all they have to do is vaguely
perform their supposed function, the rest is all bling glitter and
fashion.

really?
i think there's a reason why tv remotes, keyboards, you name it, have real
buttons instead of a touch sensitive area.
there's a reason why people dont say the zx81 had the best keyboard
ever......

Yes. I rather like the ability to select multiple items by dragging my
finger across the screen.

Of course there is, it's much cheaper and real buttons are far more
durable.

and a touch sensitive keyboard would go through most windows in half an
hour.......

i once bought a phillips pronto programmable remote on other people's
reccomendations - it was fancy for sure, but it was also impossible to use
without looking at it.
