 LG and Samsung seem to be trading design ideas these days. While Samsung has borrowed the design for LG's Rumor QWERTY phone, the LG Invision keeps things boxy and simple on AT&T's MediaFLO TV service, just like the Samsung Access. It is the smallest MediaFLO phone on the market, but it still requires some extra bulk for the TV hardware, so it isn't a tiny or super-slim phone. Unfortunately, we saw the phone in San Francisco, where AT&T doesn't have broadcast service available, which probably says something about the state of mobile TV in the U.S. In any case, the phone keeps it simple, with a basic AT&T interface and a large, dominating d-pad style navigation button. Release: October 2008. Price: $150.
