[NTLK] [IPHN] LG KE850

Hi all,

I don't remember if anyone posted on the list yet, but the iPhone looks just like LG's KE850 which was announced almost a month ago today.

Like the iPhone, it features a large touch sensitive screen to replace all buttons. I also noticed that the camera on the back is in the same position as the iPhone. Could it be that the iPhone is a re-branded LG phone with Apple software?

On this page you can see pictures of the LG KE850:

Here is an Engadget post:

Further digging results that the LG phone is a version of a 'Prada Cellphone'
