I’m not sure how we missed this one, but the FCC has cleared the LG KM900 aka Arena back in January. The version FCC was dealing with (KM900QA) has all the right bands (850/1900 MHz) to sing along AT&T’s 3G network, meaning we could see this baby hitting the States in no time.
Everyone’s quiet at this stage and I guess we’ll have to wait for the CTIA and then see AT&T going all official with the Arena launch. It may compete with their other hit (iPhone), but the Arena looks like it would solidly complement AT&T’s sales in the tough economic times. After all, so far the LG has reported more than 1 million units pre-ordered and they have just started offering the device in Europe!
As a reminder, the LG Arena is arguably the single best feature phone available on the market today, packing a 3-inch WVGA touchscreen, great camera, 8GB of built-in memory, WiFi and that cool looking S-Class touch UI.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. 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.
