While most HDTV set owners believed that Sony would be the first company to offer TV sets that could instantly and automatically connect and stream feed from Netflix, LG has beaten them to the punch by bringing out new 47-inch LCD HDTV and the 50-inch plasma HDTV PS80 that already are capable of doing the exact same.

The latest baby to come from the house of LG is none other but a sweet little whiz kid mobile that claims to be an “all-in-one phone”. Yes, you guess it right, we are talking about the latest touch phone – the LG KC910. The elder sibling of this model, LG KU990 has been a very affable one. What remains to be seen is, does the new one matches the claims it so proudly presents.

KC910 gives a new age multi media experience, complete with an 8 megapixel auto focus camera, in built Wi-Fi and GPS, which lets you geo-tag the photos. The camera flaunts Schneider-Kreuznach optics with a xenon flash. The display has an unbeatable resolution of 240 x 400 pixels.

Now, the baby looks pretty enough for me to try but the only thing that puts me off is that the price is undisclosed yet. By the time they announce the price, I may get a fixation for another gadget! Let me wish it all the best, and pray that I wait for the model to be launched in October.

After introducing you to Swarovski encrusted My Dior phone, laptop bag and Bluetooth headset, here is LG’s Canvas Crystal X LCD TV, all set to hit the market. The base of the 47-inch LCD TV (aka Canvas Crystal X) comes clad with 1000 Swarovski crystals and sports a 1080p full HD resolution plus a contrast ratio of 50,000:1.

Another USP is the ‘EyeQ’ that mechanically regulates the TV’s brilliance, contrast, and the color poise. News is this bling version of LCD TV is currently available for Koreans for KRW3.3m ($3194/£1629/€2053) and I am curious if it has any plans to reach overseas.
