LG Incite not doing well in Korea

We're sorry to say this, but apparently it's true: the Korean version of LG Incite -- known as LG SU200, LG KU200 or Cyon Incite -- is a disaster of a device.

The Incite is South Korea's first LG smartphone, and it should've been a hit. Well, it's not.

Cyon Incite is available via SK Telecom and KTF since February this year, but only about 1,000 units were sold, despite its rather affordable price -- 200,000 won ($150) on contract.

Reportedly, the handset's lack of success has several causes:

• Korean users think the Incite has an ugly design -- that's weird
• the Windows Mobile 6.1 UI is laggy
• there's no GPS (although AT&T's Incite has this feature)
