Sunday, October 19, 2008 6:04
Verizon Wireless and LG Electronics have teamed up to make the LG Decoy available to the masses - is the first cell phone in the world that comes with an integrated hands-free Bluetooth, which lets you talk while driving without the risk of being fined. Of course, the advantage of carrying with you everywhere you go is also great because I hate toting around more than I should, in combining two devices into one package is brilliant, but one thing to do. The docking port on the back of the phone is placed discreetly, so that you will not have to embarrass risk every time you whip LG Decoy in the presence of others.
This fashionable handset sports a two-tone finish with a glossy front, a satin back, and a 2.2″ mirror-like LCD screen. There is also a five-way directional joystick thrown in for navigation purposes, and operating on Verizon Wireless’ network, it makes navigating through the hottest multimedia features from Verizon Wireless even easier.
