LG readies slider phone with widescreen TV

LG's Cyon brand today revealed the LB2700, its second phone this week to sport mobile TV after the updated Prada phone. Rather than choose the conventional tall LCD from most cellphones that forces viewers to either pivot the display or the phone itself to watch shows, the LB2700 has a wide-aspect display that fits DMB broadcasts without letterboxing or other tweaks.

EVDO broadband is built-in; other details are unavailable but should include a camera and a dedicated media player for music and videos. The phone goes on sale soon in its Korean home through the provider KTF but would need a change to MediaFLO TV to see a US launch. [via AVING]
