LG GM730
Posted on | January 29, 2010 | No Comments
As I am Starhub Hubber, I get to change mobile phone annually.
After browsing through the models, I decided to get LG GM730 (LG JOY), which runs on Windows Mobile 6.1. It has wide 3” LCD panel that enhance surfing,
touch screen interactivity.
The features of LG Joy as follow:
- Connectivity: 3G/HSDPA/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth
- GPS
- 5MP Camera
- LG S-Class UI (A Home Screen Widget built on Windows Mobile)
- Display: 240×400pixels, 3”/ 65K Colors/ TFT Screen
- Memory: Micro-SD up to 16GB
As I was a previous Windows Mobile user, I realised that the common thing that does not change through the versions is Windows Mobile still hang easily; to make it worst, I need to hard reset the device.
Comparing it with other Windows Mobile device, it is quite responsive when interacting with its UI. It provides quite a wide set of applications including MS Office Mobile and widgetized Calendar, Email and Messages.
One cool features I like about windows mobile is its multi-tasking capability, I realised that iPhone OS cannot multi-task, not sure about Android though.

It is another Vampires flick of a different perspective. This time round, the cause is from a plague. The world become vampire domination, with less than 5% human population left. The only hope for vampire survival is to find a blood substitute or a cure.
Nice bloody movie with a good storyline!
