solee i posted this reply somewhere else, so it's a duplicate if u dun mind.

i use htc,nokia,SE and now added LG to my collection.

saw the Ice Cream model abt 2 weeks back, no stock then. simple clam shell phone, with interesting light features on the top cover when it's closed. suitable for females, so i thought i'd get it for my other half.

went to look at it again, stock came. same as description above, nothing fancy about the functions.

the Cookie, priced about rm100 more than the ice cream. tried the cookie, renoir and almost all other models. i think the Cookie is a pretty decent gadget, and bought it for her. been using it and the functions are friendly, text input (chinese/english) are quite good. java apps are ok. i think sum up from personal experience as below:-

pros :
-very very light, only 89g! the ice cream feels like 30% heavier than cookie! friendly GUI (user interface).
-clear screen.
-i think one of the best thing/feature is the motion sensor tilt thingy. pictures and videos will 'adjust' horizontal or vertical by itself.
-charges fast
-scribble/pen and virtual keypad input is quite responsive
-slide the main screen and also the shortcut icons on each of these 2 screens (1 for common contact numbers, the other one for application shortcuts)

cons :
-no flash, no 3G, no wifi. got bluetooth and proprietary usb port connector.
-screen will switch off (fade) to conserve battery, so tapping the screen will not 'activate' it back, u have to press one of the buttons below to light the screen again. however, i think can do settings on how long the timeout to fade.

battery life not fully tested yet, but for now..1 day still 85% at least remain.

music/songs, play quite loud but maximum will 'break'. around 50% is already quite loud and enjoyable.

so far so good, quite an interesting budget phone. won't regret with this kind of sub 1k pricing and won't lose too much $$$ (compared to buying above 2k phones from what i've experienced)

all the best in your search. each phone/model/brand has got its good and bad. it was a 'risk' to try this LG but i think the product so far proved its worth smile.gif

I'm someone that like to sms and sms it fast (hate when thing lag while smsing). At the beginning, I wasn't sure about it performance in the handwriting recognition as I don't like to use PDA type of phone which always need the little stick to tap on the screen. But after using this phone for solid 2 days (ya, just got it 2 days ago from Sungai Wang), handwriting recognition feature is consider quite ok already, at least I won't be complaining about it or get angry when writing it. nod.gif

I think the best when come to handwriting recognition, is if you write chinese word, that's fast and accurate. rclxms.gif

I think the best thing out from this phone is the "Money:Feature" ratio. Something that less than RM1k can give you features like these, I think is quite good. To me, 3G or wifi is missing from this phone might be bothering you, IF only if you are someone like to surf on the phone. Otherwise, to me, I will be consider that, I save money since I won't be online with this phone and no need to worry about my data charge in my phone bill. whistling.gif
