It’s been, what? Three weeks since their announcement? And already the LG Arena has attracted a million preorders online. The 3D S-Class UI is clearly turning a lot of heads, although the 8 megapixel camera certainly isn’t hurting its popularity. Already, the Arena shows a lot of promise, even when compared to its smaller brother, the Viewty (which has already founds its way into 5 million hands). Although the Arena will be landing in Europe first, Americans will soon find an alternative 8 megapixel cameraphone coming to T-Mobile thanks to Samsung.
