The method of dual booting OS’s has been around for a while now, most noticeably/recently with OS X and Windows using Bootcamp on Intel Mac’s. Well looks like this marvelous tool/ability is making its way onto the iPhone thanks to the Dev Team and the recently published instructions form MuscleNerd.
Dual Boot an iPhone! The nerd in me just punched the air!
This looks amazing, and it is gonna blow the iPhone out of the water
Hmm, well I like the music, and the flashing clock!
Lg have announced the release of the their new KS20 which they hope will be able to compete with Apple’s iPhone, due for release on the 9th November.
This new handset looks suspiciously like the LG PRADA KE850 and is released today in the UK, cunningly a few days before the iPhone.
Cunningly released just a few days before the iPhone goes on sale in the UK, the KS20 has a 2.8in touchscreen allowing users to view web pages downloaded over 3.6Mb/s HSPDA 3G connections. The tri-band GSM handset also includes 802.11b/g Wi-Fi connectivity, with Bluetooth 2.0 for short-range communication.
The phone ships with a 128MB internal memory and accepts Micro SD cards for storing pictures taken on its two-megapixel camera. However, it also acts as a multimedia device and stores video and music files, including MPEG 4 and MP3 formats, respectively. An FM radio’s included too.
Running on the Windows Mobile 6 OS, the handset gives around four hours of talk time and a good 400 hours in standby, LG claimed.
I have never really liked LG phones, to me they always look like something was missing from their design, and I am afraid that this one does the same for me again. It just isn’t as sexy as the iPhone and if the interface is based on the KE850 then this is just going to be an iPhone rip off rather than a competitor…
