Anyone got an LG mobile?

Particularly the LG Cookie (LG 400, I think)?

What do you think of it? I've only ever come across LG fridges!

I have the LG Cookie.

I have had 6 LG phones now, and though they have got progressively better over the years, they have always been pretty decent, and now are really very good.

They are simple to use, but equally pleasant to use, I recently got given the new Samsung that has just come out but didn't like the way it 'moved' around screens at all, and gave it away.

I had the LG chocolate and it was rubbish!

i have an lg cookie and its well a phone! it has 3 times now re-set itself which is annoying, the touch screen takes a bit of getting used to.

i have the lg cookie (kp500) and its a good phone. Internet access is good but touch screen does take a while, have had mine since christmas and still get it wrong! LOL

Is it easy to manage data? I want to use it as a personal organiser and address book. I have a Palm, but it's on its last legs (I can no longer synchronise with my PC). Everyone says get a Blackberry, but I like the touchscreen of my Palm, and hate the keyboard on the Blackberry. Not to mention hating the price!

Katz, does 'well a phone' mean good or bad?

I've got the Cookie and I love it. Its fab. I find the touchscreen fine to use, even got on the internet with it once and it takes photos. I'm not very techno with phones so just really use it for......well calling people and sometimes texting. I have no idea about data management. What's a personal organiser?

I've found the personal organiser bit, it looks good. You put in what it is, where it is, time of event. You can choose whether or not to have an alarm for it.

i suppose that i'm not the best reviewer as i only use it to send texts, make calls and occasionally surf the web. But my biggest bug bare with it is that it has reset itself so i lost a load of texts.

Actually, the LG Chocolate was a bit crap - quite hard to use the touchy buttons.

The Cookie though, is really good. Its not anywhere near as 'handy' as a blackberry or a palm though, regular phones really don't have the features you get for data management like PDA's do.

Mine's never reset.
