HSDPA phone (Model name: LG-CU500) of LG Electronics has been selected as the "Gadget of the Week" by the U.S. Time magazine on July 26. The magazine said the CU500 may well be LG's most attractive model yet with its matte and glossy black finish and hints of chrome and brushed aluminum. Its look and high-tech innards definitely suggest that it is geared toward a fashionable male audience. Like most phones, it plays MP3s loaded onto a memory card. There's a sweet program called MusicID that magically names almost any tune it hears through its microphone - even stuff playing on your car radio. Cingular's MobiRadio program is there. The CU500's Bluetooth wireless system lets customers connect to wireless headphones, a feature found on only the latest phones. It's fun to connect a wireless stereo headset. It is only available if customers live in a city with HSDPA coverage. Some cities like New York have only spotty coverage, although Cingular promises to complete much of its high-speed network expansion by the year's end. Cho Joon-ho, vice president of the MC business headquarters of LG Electronics said, "The favorable response to our HSDPA phone in the North American market reflects LG Electronics' advanced technology level in mobile phones. Based on our excellent technology and design, we will continue lead the next-generation mobile communication market in the North American market." The Time magazine has been selecting one model among various state-of-the-art digital equipments, including handsets, digital cameras and MP3 players, as the "Gadget of the Week" every week, introducing characteristics and functions of the selected product.
