LG announced today a phone another “Cookie-Like” – GS500 LG Cookie Plus. Unlike the old model (KP500), GS500 bring only two improvements: Internet speed HSDPA (7.2 Mbps) and integrated social services (Facebook, Twitter, MySpace … – already know the place).

Plus GS500 LG Cookie will sell in Europe since March. Top countries of the land are France and Italy. The price was not disclosed, but expect one similar to the old KP500 Cookie.

n case there is anyone who doubts the ambition of the Samsung always be in the foreground, here’s further proof. The Korean manufacturer will be the first to launch a phone with Bluetooth 3.0. More specifically, it is the Samsung S8500.

No information is known about Samsung S8500. It is not known or when it will be released, nor how it will cost. We know only that it will have an of 3.1 inch AMOLED touchscreen interface already classic TouchWiz. Also, there are big opportunities and 3G.

Bluetooth 3.0 will bring a significant speed increase. Bluetooth transfer speed is specified for 3.0 is 24 Mbps, while the mobile version of the current Bluetooth 2.1, reaching only 3 Mbps.

Google wanted to have a phone under its brand and it appeared Nexus One, made for them by Samsung. Today is the most powerful phone with Android. For example from my Hero comes with some important improvements:

* Snapdragon processor 1 GHz (almost double as I have).
* AMOLED screen.
* 480 x 854 resolution on a 3.7 inch screen (compared with 320 × 480 pixels, so Nexus One is the resolution width as Hero’s length).
* 512 MB of RAM to 288 MB.
* HSDPA 7.2 Mbps and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA (in November, I know, HSUPA not yet implemented)
* Wireless 802.11n, the next b / g
* 5 MP camera has all but announced and a smile detection
* FM radio with RDS (Hero’s he has no radio)
* Android 2.1 with further improvements to menus, animated backgrounduri and other good stuff they take your eyes. (Hero site receives over 2.1 months)
* Name horrible (compared to Hero)

Little of it say that it is currently the coolest phone. I expect to be a little higher, with 3.7 inch screen, but I would not bother it. Tomorrow, on January 5, will make Google even some ads on this phone and what plans were for him. I expect to sell more cheaply, preferring to minimize its profit (or even go to the break-even) just to spread the world its Android operating system and earn money from other services that are integrated into the phone . At the same time I can not give too cheap, and Samsung as your need to sell other models sold and would be in their interest to take the Google too.

At this point I give Hero’s on a Nexus One in a ns, not stand thinking. Another model I like is the Motorola Milestone (which the U.S. is selling like hot cakes called Droid), which is bad though, foam, is that true QWERTY keyboard, which I am convinced, again testing the N97 and N900 that’s a good idea for my style of mobile users.
