From Korea Times INFO-TECH (Look legs. I learned how to paste the whole thing! Thanks. And thanks to Polvie for teaching me how to embolden the script.) hk.co.kr LGIC Unveils World's Thinnest CDMA Folder-Type Handset LG Information and Communication yesterday unveiled the world's thinnest mobile handset, intensifying the race for smaller and slimmer models. The CyON Cyber Folder, dubbed ``iBook,'' is part of the lineup focused on slimmer designs which appeal to Korean mobile users. ``The development of iBook testifies to the fact that LGIC is at the forefront of the smaller-the-better trend of the mobile handset market,'' said an LGIC spokesman. iBook, which is set to hit shelves next week, is based on LG's original layout but reduces the width to 15.7mm, the smallest among Korean handset models. One of the factors contributing to the smaller design is an upgraded core chip, the MSM3100, LGIC said. The model also targets the mobile Internet market in Korea, whose demand for this year is estimated to reach around eight million units. iBook's liquid crystal display (LCD) panel features eight lines of text for better data transmission. ·âú¶«Çøœ 2000/05/16 17:45 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
