Partnering with Microsoft, LG is the first manufacturer to use Windows Mobile 6.5. The GM730 runs on LG's S-Class User Interface for four customizable home screens built-around a 3D "cube" layout -- turnable with the flick of a finger. LG removed nested menus, providing direct access to applications.

The GM730 has a 3.0-inch WQVGA touch screen, 5.0-megapixel camera and Bluetooth 2.1 technology.

Users can reach their friends for real-time chat, email and text messages. 'Chat on the Map' is the world's first location-based SNS service to allow users to locate themselves as well as their friends, social network group.

"The combination of Windows Mobile and our new 3D S-Class User Interface will make the LG GM730 the most functional and easiest to use smartphone ever created," said Skott Ahn, LG Mobile's President and CEO. "We will launch a number of smartphones this year -- most of them will follow this same winning formula."

The LG GM730 will be available for purchase in the first half of 2009.
