LG GW990 Preview

,----[ Quote ]
| The 4.8" 1024 x 480 pixel display is the
| most immediately obvious feature of the LG
| GW990, and a consequence this is a really
| big device, by our reckoning it has a
| footprint of around 140 x 60mm.
|
| [...]
|
| The LG GW990 runs the Moblin operating
| system, a product of the Linux Foundation.
| Moblin is pitched at products from netbooks
| to what they call "mobile internet devices",
| so it is aimed at that market segment
| between (say) Android on smartphones and
| Ubuntu on full-blown PCs.
