LG announces hi-res camera-sporting wireless handheldBy Anthony Newman, Wednesday 8 October 2003
New handheld sports 1.1MP camera and some serious features.

Korean handset manufacturer LG Electronics has revealed a new phone in its arsenal - one with some pretty unique features.

The most interesting of these is its 1.1 megapixel digital camera, which is a first on a wireless handheld, although Sony's NZ-90 handheld famously sports a 2MP camera.

The new handset reportedly runs Microsoft's Phone Edition platform, although it is unknown whether this is the new 2003 version. Oddly, the handset is also reported to have 192 MB of memory; this is likely to include a bundled storage card, however, as such capacity would make this the largest RAM available on any handheld.

The large memory is intended for recording video, with the handheld able to store an hour of moving picture information.

Although no intended markets were announced, an estimated price of 800,000 won (the Korean currency) or $700 USD was set, along with a release date of the end of the year.
