Another addition to the growing LG Cookie range is the LG GS290 Cookie Fresh. The Cookie Fresh has many features from the Cookie Plus, but in a simpler package that makes it compete against the popular Samsung Genio / Corby phone.
The LG GS290 Cookie Fresh has a 3″ 240 x 400 pixel touchscreen display, a basic 2 megapixel camera, a multimedia player, FM radio and a 3.5mm audio socket.
This is a GSM-only device with no 3G or WiFi connectivity, and no fancy features like GPS . The Cookie Fresh does come with support for social networking applications including Twitter and Facebook, supports downloadable “widgets” and has a fun cartoon-style user interface.
LG says that the GS290 Cookie Fresh will be provided in 16 different colours, although weguess that most retailers will only have a couple of these available. At least the wide variety of colours stop if from looking too much like a black slabby handset.
We don’t know exactly when the Cookie Fresh will be available to buy, but we suspect that you won’t have to wait too long to see this particular handset in the shops.
