LG has the LG-KS20 on display at IFA 2007. A brand new mobile, although with deeinite Prada slash Viewty references, it's a 3G smartphone.

Running Windows Mobile 6, and all the office-tastic features that offers, it measures just 12.8mm thick and boasts a 2.8-inch touchscreen display with full browsing capability.

With its HSDPA connectivity it could offer up to 3.6Mbps download speed. Other features include push email, a 2-megapixel camera, MP3 playback, 128GB memory, microSD card slot and Bluetooth 2.0.

We only managed the briefest of hands-on with the phone as it was being filmed by a German TV crew at our time on the stand, but the touchscreen seemed smooth and worked with fingers, better with stylus.

In Germany this is being launched on the Vodafone network, UK and France launches are planned but no details of operator, although the assumption would be the same company.
