LG Pop GD510 now in Thailand

Quick, what's the latest LG phone launched in Thailand? No, it's not the LG BL40 and neither the LG GW525 -- it's the LG GD510 Pop, one of the world's smallest full-touch phones.

LG has appointed singer Ruj Suparuj Taechatanon to present the GD510 Pop in Thailand -- a clear sign that the phone is targeted at the young generation.

The LG Pop is really thin (11.2 mm) and comes wtih a 3-inch WQVGA touchscreen display and lots of multimedia features, like MP3 player, 3.2 Megapixel camera and web browser.

The LG Pop GD510 can also use an optional solar-battery cover, and has the following green features:

• Strictly adheres to the European Union’s RoHS requirements, ensuring that it does not contain any polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and is made free of BFR (brominated flame retardants) and CFR (chlorinated flame retardants) almost up to 99.9 percent.
• All packaging is made from recycled paper with environmentally-friendly soy ink printing.
• A highly efficient battery charger cuts power consumption and subsequently reduces carbon emissions. When the phone is fully charged, it beeps and displays a message on screen, reminding users to unplug the charger and save energy.

LG says that for every GD510 Pop phone sold, it will plant one tree. The company will also launch "One Email One Tree" - an interactive website where users will be able plant virtual trees -- LG will then collect all entries and plant real trees for every virtual entry, under a corporate social responsibility project.
