One of the phones that LG will be using to reassert its position as the premier manufacturer of Windows Phone 7 devices, at least for the initial launch, is the touchscreen-only E900. It has been spotted recently on the pages of the Global Certification Forum, which approves GSM devices a few weeks before launch, with quad-band GSM, and 900/2100MHz 3G, which means the device is heading to Europe.
Considering some inside scoops from Microsoft that WP7 will be having a handset in Europe first, the E900 might as well be the first Windows Phone 7 device to hit the shelves.
Some other interesting details have been caught from the latest video, which shows the LG E900 in action, which we are embedding below. A frame with the system information, taken from the video, shows 16GB of internal storage, and the "VDF-UK" string in the software version, which might mean launch on Vodafone UK. Moreover, one of the first leaks about the device from a Microsoft's employee in Netherlands also showed Vodafone branding on the home screen. Just as a refresher, the device should come with 3.7" capacitive touchscreen, 1GHz Snapdragon, and 5MP camera with flash, which will be capable of 720p HD video capture.
On the Visible+ Pro plan, you get access to 5G Ultra Wideband data on Verizon's fastest network. Along with unlimited roaming across Mexico and Canada, 2 days of Global Pass per month, 3x hotspot speeds, 4K streaming, and Smartwatch service.
