    Huh, I would have liked a different choice in music personally. Oh well, that's why YouTube invented the mute button.

    The UI looks pretty cool... if it can be that fast.

    Look in the email list: "Billy Joel", "John Frusciante". Seriously, what are LG up to?



    (John Frusciante is the Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist, and Billy Joel is… ummm… someone).

    Ahhhh, how the iPhone has raised the bar. Seriously, question to all: Do any of you TRULY think that phones would look even REMOTELY CLOSE to this leaked Chocolate's UI if the iPhone wasn't released and Apple just stayed the fuck out of the smartphone game?

    @TheSonOfKrypton: What's funny is I was thinking the same thing while watching this video. Granted the new Chocolate is not the iPhone, but the similarities in the UI and general flow are unmistakable. I love my iPhone, but it also gets me excited to see other companies making products like this, only because Apple will have to continue to work hard to keep their handset on the top of the heap. Healthy competition is good, I just hope this Chocolate is up to the task.

    @surfer88: Yup, I feel the same way. When Apple first introduced the iPhone, Steve Jobs was quoted as saying "The iPhone is 5 years ahead of anything in the market right now". Well, he was right AND wrong. It was ahead, but not 5 years ahead. Phones like this new LG Chocolate are testament to that assertion. The other guys are catching up. It's time for Apple to step up their game again or get crushed.

    @TheSonOfKrypton:



    While I do not combat this idea, I believe companies like Google (With the new Sense UI) are taking Apple's outlook on mobile computing and giving it the edge it needs. Sorry, but after owning an iPhone for 2 years and buying a G1, I believe Android will be the future OS X Mobile. After 2 years, Apple has evolved, yes, but in my honest opinion, other companies are evolving beyond them.

    @Andrew King: I completely agree man, and that is what I was, in fact, arguing. Many different phones are now starting to approach the iPhone (and some may argue surpass) in terms of that "wow" factor. Apple either needs to step it up, or get smashed. Bottom line. The sheer number of phones that are coming out with Android should scare the shit outta Apple.

    @Andrew King: I really, really like the new Android (from what I've seen), but I'm still giving it a while. I think all the major phone OS's have something great to offer. Android seems to be evolving the fastest, but I'm sold on a Pre this time 'round.

    "although without a proper smartphone OS, the Chocolate will still be a dumbphone at heart."



    Most of the time, most people don't really care about geeky things like what OS their running. But when comparing a Flash OS to a real OS, they ca tell the difference.

    @dallasmay2: I think you're selling the consuming public short. While most folks may not have casual conversations about the comparative benefits and multitasking abilities of the various operating systems, people care about content and apps, and know well enough that a phone with a pretty screen does not necessarily bring either.
