Two New Mobile Phones from LG

LG Electronics has added two new devices -- LG Cookie Plus (LG GS500) and LG Cookie Fresh (LG GS290) -- to its Cookie Series of smartphones. The new phones follow their predecessor, LG Cookie, which sold over 13 million units worldwide by offering a full touchscreen experience with social networks, mobile applications and advanced graphics.

"LG Cookie Series reflects our effort to bring creativity and fun to the mobile touchphone experience," said Dr. Skott Ahn, President and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. "LG Cookie Plus and LG Cookie Fresh offer various features to suit different tastes while maintaining the core features of the original LG Cookie phone."

LG Cookie Plus (LG GS500), centered on social connectivity, is a 3G handset suited for a networking experience. It also supports downloading and running applications, real-time push e-mail and web browsing.

For those craving a new look, LG Cookie Fresh (LG GS290) offers the features found in the original Cookie but comes in a sleek and smooth package and soft outer grip as well as in 16 color variations.

LG Cookie Plus (LG GS500) will be available worldwide this month after making its debut in France and Italy. LG Cookie Fresh (LG GS290) will be available in over 60 countries following its introduction in Germany and Russia. Prices will be announced separately in each market.
