First 1GHz Snapdragon WM device in US comes as AT&T's $200 LG eXpo

A couple of months ago LG stated they would be bringing a large number of Windows Mobile devices to market and they caught me a bit off guard with the very first 1GHz Snapdragon device to launch in the US with the LG eXpo on AT&T. This Windows Mobile 6.5 device is available for only $199.99 after rebates and contract and will have an optional Pico projector pack for $179.99 if you want to give presentations on the go. As you can see on the AT&T site this is quite a device and I will have to swing by my local AT&T store to check one out.

A couple of months ago LG stated they would be bringing a large number of Windows Mobile devices to market and they caught me a bit off guard with the very first 1GHz Snapdragon device to launch in the US with the LG eXpo on AT&T (link to WM Experts). This Windows Mobile 6.5 device is available for only $199.99 after rebates and contract and will have an optional Pico projector pack for $179.99 if you want to give presentations on the go. As you can see on the AT&T site this is quite a device and I will have to swing by my local AT&T store to check one out.

The LG eXpo is a slider QWERTY device with the follow specs:

  • 1GHz Snapdragon processor
  • Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
  • Tri-band UMTS/HSDPA (850/1900/2100 MHz)
  • 3.2 inch 480x800 16 million color display
  • 802.11 b/g WiFi
  • Bluetooth 2.1
  • A-GPS
  • 5 megapixel camera
  • 1500 mAh battery
  • microSD card slot

I haven't been able to find out if this display is resistive or capacitive, but assume it is resistive like every other Windows Mobile device except for the HTC HD2.
