Another preview from LG, this time the LG GM730 - a Windows smartphone that uses the LG 3G S-Class interface. LG say that they will give full details at some future date, but their own site has leaked most of the important technical specifications.

The GM730 has a 5 megapixel camera with Schneider Kreuznach optics, GPS support, WiFi and a 400 x 240 pixel resolution 3.0" touchscreen display. The operating system is Windows Mobile Professional 6.1, plus the S-Class interface on top. And the LG GM730 measures 110 x 57 x 12mm.

LG's motivation for slapping the S-Class interface on top of Windows is that it makes it easier to use. Well, perhaps.. but since almost every manufacturer is doing this at the moment, it means that you have to re-learn the add-on interface if you change brands.
