Windows Mobile’s email application might not be perfect, but one thing it really has going for it is how simple it is to switch from one email account to another very quickly.
If you’re like me, you have a handful of emails that you check on a regular basis — your work email, your personal email, the email address you use when you sign up for something that could potentially spam you with Viagra ads… etc.
LG has been showcasing various LTE technologies and one of them was a WinMo phone running over LTE. The potential for LTE is amazing and it will definitely be the missing link for full video streaming and media capabilities on a device.
With LTE technology, users can download a 700 MB movie file in less than one minute at speeds of 100 Mbps. LTE technology would also allow consumers to simultaneously stream four HD movies without any buffering.
This is going to be an incredible advancement in mobile devices and LG are doing a great job of pioneering the technology. With over 250 staff on the research and development team, expect the first LTE devices to come from LG.

The LG Incite is the latest buzz in the Windows Mobile space. This WinMo 6.1 device is spec heavy with a 3MP autofocus camera, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, accelerometer, a sharp and outdoor visible display, a Qualcomm 528MHz CPU and an FM radio.
One of the reasons this phone has been getting so much press is that the touch screen is haptic, providing for a more human feel to the screen. Another reasons is that the phone has a proximity sensor, which is heavily guarded technology that Apple patents, which few other phones utilize. Also among the features, the phone uses a light sensor that helps modify lighting on the fly. Continue reading a break down of the LG Incite
Pandora Radio is the incredibly popular streaming radio program that makes intelligent guesses as to what songs you would like to hear based on preferences. The software was supposed to come embedded with the new LG Incite on AT&T, but a few Incite owners have said this isn’t the case. It could be that the promotion was prematurely made public before carriers could load the software. Stay tuned because Pandora will be available to download for other devices in the near future.

Last month, Steve Ballmer went to the UK just to mock Android and this month he traveled to Korea to praise the new Samsung T*Omnia. Just to recap, the T*Omnia is the Korea update of the Samsung Omnia released in the US.
Ballmer said that the T*Omnia is “at the forefront of this new generation of mobile devices,” and he’s pleased to see how it “brings together communications, productivity, multimedia, and entertainment in a way that meets the needs of both consumers and mobile professionals.”
Personally, I think he’s just a huge fan of anything Windows Mobile. In any case, expect the T*Omnia to start selling from SK Telecom on November 20.
The Samsung Omnia has received some upgrades for its journey to Korea to be sold under SK Telekom. The upgrades include a 3.3-inch 480 x 800 WVGA touchscreen, as well as support for Satellite DMB for mobile TV. The phone will keep some of its original specs such as being available in 4GB and 16GB models, both with expandable memory via microSD card slots.
Also part of the move to Korea, the Omnia will be renamed the T*Omnia. I’m not sure why the name change but there is clearly some Korean marketing at work.
