LG Cooky upgrades Cookie with bad spelling

by Chris Ziegler posted Mar 10th 2009 at 9:44AM

When we see "Cooky," we think "kooky" -- as in, not normal, not quite right, a little crazy. Insane in the membrane, if you will. Think is, at 10.9mm thick, there's nothing crazy about wanting LG's latest domestic-issue touchphone, even if it is just a mildly-upgraded version of the KP500 Cookie available globally for the past few months. The thing's got a 3 megapixel camera, microSD slot, and a 3D-ish UI with accelerometer support just like its older brother, but the T-DMB tuner, and 7.2Mbps HSDPA give this version the edge. Throw in that big ~~Google~~ Cooky logo, LG, and you've won our hearts. Looks like it'll be available in June for about 590,000 won ($383, give or take) -- let's just hope it includes a dictionary.

As long as they follow the old rule... C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me.

Am I right? I saw torn double-sided tape between letters C and o, and another on k and Y?
