I checked out one of these at one of those dreadful 'fones 4 u' places on oxford street in London. I really thought that this would be a better alternative to the iphone with all the juicy specs etc. After I had fobbed the wide-boy salesman off with some suspect details he let me play with the thing for a while. Feels very cheap and flimsy in the hand and the response of the touch screen was poor. This combined with the laggy and not overly pretty interface completely turned me off this phone. I really, really wanted to love it too. The guy would have done me a deal on Vodafone, Orange and O2. You can get it on 3 too. I told him to shove it though!
LG has been a disappointment as of late. I hope you're wrong because at first glance, this does look interesting. Clunky hardware and bad UI sounds just like LG's usual business.
