Cellphone to complement the Macbook ...

What about for people with blackBooks?

I think this one fits the bill quite nicely... 😀

Is that a pie-in-the-sky prototype, or is it actually going to look like that? How big is that phone? It's très cute. 🙂

It's out in Korea & Europe at the moment. It's called the KG800 made by LG. Apparently it got its name as the Chocolate phone because it smells of Chocolate?! I'm not sure if the euro one does as I have yet to buy one 😱

Aww.. That Sucks maybe I'll Just get a Motorola or Sony Ericsson. (NO Nokia Phones.. they're BAD)

I'll narrow it down even further for you. Get a Sony Ericsson. Motorola phones suck.

I actually just took out a new contract, and chose one of those LG 'Chocolate' phones aka LG KG800. Most of the promotion I've seen for it suggests the chocolate moniker is due to it's similarity to a bar of chocolate…

It's actually a really nice phone, with lots of nice design features & attention to detail. For example, the digits appear large on screen when typed in, and remind me of the way that Mac OS X displays fullscreen telephone numbers via Address Book or the Address widget.

It's the closest phone I've seen to an Apple design so far, in terms of its hardware being simple & refined, with a less-is-more practicality.

Just a shame it won't connect with iSync (yet?), and is a bit temperamental with talking with my iMac via Bluetooth…

Too bad it is not supported by iSync yet... 🙁

I'll put it simply: Samsung sucks for phones. They don't support the profile(s) necessary for iSync or Salling Clicker (except in their Series 60 phones), and the GUI seems like it's a mishmash of Motorola and OS X. Just check out all the threads on the Apple Discussions page about them. Clickety.
If you want to use iSync, don't get a Samsung.

I'll narrow it down even further for you. Get a Sony Ericsson. Motorola phones suck.

AMEN! I just had a Samsung d807 forced upon me, and it has made me appreciate SE even more. 😱


I can't believe I just said I appreciate something with "Sony" in the name. 🙄
