the LG Musiq

The LG 570 Musiq

This is a hard selection to make - product of the month.  Sprint has added exciting PDAs, hybrid phones, and new versions of data cards.  Which is best?  The question of best of course depends on application.  For serious business users, the Blackberry 8830 packs a punch - and even allows international travel and data usage.  For those who want a phone that is somewhere between a phone and a PDA, the new Motorola Q9c responds well - adding built in Sprint TV capability and GPS to the previous Motorola Q.  And of course Palm users will pass up those two and go for the clever new Palm Centro.

Ok.  Those are the PDA people.  What about the rest of us?  Well Sprint has now a number of high end phones that basically "do it all" - meaning bluetooth, camera, music and high speed data - including Sprint TV and GPS driving help capabilities.  Those phones inlcude Samsungs new 520, and certainly Sanyo's Katana Deluxe - that sends their popular Katana line into the big time of muscle phones.  And then there is the Musiq by LG.  The phone that many many prefer.

Before the Musiq was the Fusic.  The Fusic was one of the most popular phones we have ever seen.  It was hard to find anyone who disliked it.  In fact most Fusic users some days seemed the happiest of all.  The do everything Fusic phone - the cute phone with total capability and total fun.  What could be better?  Well, LG has updated the Fusic into the new Musiq - the updated version of its most popular phone with us ever.  Bluetooth, camera, music, high speed data, and capable of Sprint TV and GPS navigation aids.  Just as important perhaps, it is fun and comes in two colors.  Pink is show here.  There is also black.  For those people who want a phone and not a PDA, but lots of capability within that phone, the Musiq is not a bad bet at all.
