We have talked about the LG KT610 before mostly because it has GPS capabilities. A French site had a close encounter with the device in Barcelona and took lots of pictures too.

South Korean LG made a surprise at the last Mobile World Congress in Barcelona by revealing their second smartphone under Symbian S60 behind the “KS10″ and named “KT610″. This one is new as it has a form factor close to that of a Nokia Communicator.

Offering a full QWERTY keyboard, the KT610 of LG uses Symbian OS operating system with the S60 3rd edition Feature Pack 1 software interface. It features two screens, the main one measuring 2.4 inches and has 240×320 pixels resolution, and the more compact second (1.45 inches) only offering 160×64 pixels resolution.

Finally the KT610 has compatibility with triband GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS and 3G+ (3.6 mbps) networks , has a GPS receiver, and a 2MP digital camera. It has Bluetooth 2.0 but does not have Wi-Fi. It has 64 MB of internal storage and more than one port for MicroSD memory card (not compatible with high capacity formats). LG KT610 is planned to be marketed in Europe in May 2008 for a price for the moment unknown.
