"The VU is great from Here!"
Pros: This is a PHONE first and foremost
Cons: its not an iphone??? but THATS a good thing!!
Summary: I had been agonizing for a few weeks since the iphone came out in early july. The iphone is awesome there is no question. BUT i wasn't 100% sure i wanted it to be my PHONE. and thats what i wanted was a PHONE. Iphone no MMS??? come on that is basic, basic, basic. landscape querty?? not a deal breaker BUT def a deal maker for the VU. $30 dollar data package for the iphone? 15 for the VU. Which is smokin on 3g. The size is perfect. Oh and don't get fooled by the prototype pics. There is no clunky antenna. That was just in the very early models. now to the touch screen. Its not the iphone BUT its great just the same. The gentle vibrate response to touches is a nice "touch". I really like having the feedback when i press buttons on the screen. Again the iphone is missing that as well. Now i looked at the iphone first at the store and i just couldn't do it. it didn't floor me. its a novelty. THE LG VU is a PHONE. If you want your phone and ipod to be one device then thats really the only reason to get an iphone. If you want a awesome affordable and functioning touch screen phone then THE VU IS FOR YOU.

i don't quite understand this review. the Vu does have an mp3 player built in it. in my opinion from what i've read the iphone is best if your gonna use it as a computer (use internet a lot) and Vu is not (it still has internet but apparently not as fast or user friendly of one).
