LG is out with two new entry-level candybars – GB106 (pictured left) and GB110 (pictured right). Both devices won’t impress anyone with their specs sheet, but that’s because of their “low-end nature.” The Korean giant is targeting emerging markets as well as first time mobile phone users with these two.
Both the LG GB106 and LG GB110 come with a FM radio with built-in antenna (no headsets are required), 1.5-inch color display, 950 mAh Li-Ion battery (4 hours of talk and 400 hours of standby time), and only 1 MB of user memory. The better of the two models, GB110, also sports a VGA camera and microSD expansion slot that supports memory cards of up to 2GB.
The new LG phones are expected to start selling later this month. Price was not given, but we’re guessing hundred bucks would be sufficient for the better model. In other words, expect them to be offered for free on a contract.

In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
