i bought the viewty, and i don't agree that lack of wi-fi is a minus. generally, where there is wi-fi, there is a laptop, and which would you use? and anyway, where in india do we have free wi-fi in such a big manner that we will miss wi-fi capability in the phone i bought this phone a week ago, and its brilliant - the touch screen works perfectly, the little vibration on the touch is great and it looks stylish my crib about the phone - some niggles and quirks in the consistency of the software, no lens cover for the camera, and not enough animated themes. btw, i am surprised u didnt get a game - there is one available called space commando which you might have to install via the cd guys - if you want, check out my Viewty Unboxing video on youtube. and a video review coming next week...

I disagree, i use wi-fi a lot and taking into consideration the fact that wi-fi is available in a large number of homes as almlost all tech crazies have a laptop with wi-fi(i mean i have a lotta frnz who have wi-fi in their homes) my wi-fi is on 24/7/365, hence i beg to differ, I am lookin' for a phone that has wi-fi the best phone i ever came across was a nokia 7710, that shit had it all, the games were awesome, the only thing that lacked in it was wi-fi, man i'd love a 7710 wid Wi-Fi....but thats another story, nvm, but u my frnd need to open ur EYES....

Truely a great phone..in India we aren't probably used to Viewty's, Armani's and Voyager's, but this phone does bring your attention to it. To a place where people don't think beyond Nokia and Sony Ericsson, LG needs to be competitive to make its own mark. They have got a great handset in form of KU990 - now they should compete price wise as well. A price around 18k or below would definitely unsettle the Marketing guys of Nokia and others as they dont have any device which can actually compete with this device in style. Its been long since Nokia has been rallying upon their N-series phones - but they hardly offer any variations. TO me, almost all the N series phones look same in feature. Finding a touchscreen in Nokia is difficult and same story goes with Sony Ericsson and Samsung. They are going with similar type of cell phones in market without offering any variety. I was impressed with HTC product and the variety of them. From a bar phone to Touchscreen, TouchFlo, slider keyboard..they got everything in market. I am planning to get a phone and in my list HTC and Viewty superseed Nokias and Sumsungs and Sony Ericssons...I wish Viewty (KU990) had been available for around 17-18k.....

Interface is a downer....At almost the same price n95 gives u the brilliant s60 interface plus wi-fi and u can install the divx mobile app for playing divx videos which can play xvid as well....and n95 flaunt value is more if u r worried bout style....no point goin for this expensive phone from lg..except maybe the good screen but not really woth it unless the price comes down 5-8 k

Yeah, but the N95 doesn't have a touch screen. A touch screen is very different from a non touch screen. I used a touch screen phone for the first time when I used a P800. After that phone broke, I used an MPX200 smartphone which somehow never really satisfied me since I really missed the touch screen functionality of the P800. And this phone has a nice 3" screen. Now if it only had symbian....
