Probably the intense competition made the smaller South-Korean manufacturer to update its cheap touchscreen phone, Cookie, which now features HSDPA support, the S-Class UI and a T-DMB TV receiver. The strangely named LG KP500 Cooky has a hardware 3D accelerator and a gyroscope as well. Until now 1.3 million copies have been sold of the touchscreen phone announced in October, and the updated edition is expected to futher increase sales. The handset, coming without a TV receiver to Europe, will be available from June at a net price of 300 euros, which seems to be too much compared to Samsung's phones and Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, which is much better equipped.
