UK: LG hinting at “Viewty HD”

Electricpig.co.uk have been busy! Following from the coverage of the Viewty Smart, come these tidbits of information about what coulc be a “Viewty HD”, of sorts. It’s more than likely then that this device could feature HD video recording, and a monster MP camera, which should more than knock your existing digital camera in to a cocked hat!
Apparently as LG UK were showing off the Viewty Smart, they hinted that there was more to come from the Viewty family – including a 12MP camera! As regards the video side of things, whilst the Viewty Smart can do DVD-equivalent resolution (so that’s probably VGA to you and me), then next models will take this onward – and we can only assume from that they mean HD! Now here’s the zinger question – 720p HD (like Samsung’s i8910) or, dare I say it, 1080i/p?!
LG UK stated that along with a big screen, you’ve got to have things like GPS, geotagging, and auto-rotation – personally I’d argue differently, and would forego these bits to get a spankingly good video/camera-phone – but then that’s just me 
Well anyway, let’s see what is next – knowing LG, they won’t want to let Samsung too far out of the blocks with the monster i8910 multimedia phone (featuring HD….!) before they launch their own model or models!
