LG BL40 Touch Chocolate

The LG BL 40 Chocolate is one of those phones that try to beat the iPhone 3G in terms of design and usability.

As I did not have the money, I did not have the chance to sample both but the specifications seems promising.

Now the question is....

Would you buy the phone if there are beautiful Korean models?
