I've had:

VX4400
VX7000
VX8300
VX8500 (Chocolate)
VX8550 (Chocolate 2)
VX9700 (Dare)

The Dare is the one that was advanced enough to make me like the idea of a smartphone and restrictive enough to make me REALLY want a smartphone. So went to 2 BBs and then the Droid.

So yeah.. I've had a few LGs and I honestly liked them all.

Lg makes great phones. I've never been disappointed with an lg phone. That being said, phone looks a bit too thick. The keyboard looks great though. I wonder if it will have a bunch of garbage addons, or if it will be a real google experience phone like the droid.

I've had quite the different experience. I can't tell you how many EnV's have taken a **** on me. Great keyboard, horrible phone.

Before I got my Droid in February, I had used LG for all my phones the previous 6 years. Great phone company, but this one isn't exciting me. Looks great for those who want to go smartphone without ditching the feel of an ol' LG.

This has been announced last week, its the aloha phone that was released in korea or somewhere like that.

And I love LG, had the Voyager before the droid and was best phone I had up till then.

After having to go through 4 EnvTouch's (daughters phone) and numerous software updates and rollbacks in a four month period I will never own another LG phone. Finally just got it swapped for a Samsung which she loves. Funny when we were on AT&T we had two LG CU500's and never had a problem. Just this last thing has not left me with a warm fuzzy about LG.

I agree the phone looks a little thick and a little small as well. I don't really have any LG experience other than using my gf's LG Vu which in my opinion, blows so hard. In the end I find it hard to believe you can go really wrong with an Android phone.

I'll never buy an LG phone again. Worthless ****.
amen, I have had the voyager and the chocolate touch before the switch to smart phone/droid, horrendous.

Then again, though, the voyager and chocolate touch both had resistive touch screens, maybe this one will be capacitive.

+1 on capacitive. A resistive touch screen, unless they made major advances in the last few years, does not make for a good touch screen IMO.

I played with this a while back and came away thinking it was a powerful replacement to the Moto Droid. Similar in size but lighter weight and a more user friendly keyboard. Obviously the specs show mite power and spied. My inky knock is that the form factor was not really a departure from the norm. While there is nothing wrong with it, it didn't really jump out as unique.

Fixed my typos. Still getting used to Swype on the Incredible
