LG BL20 specs confirmed, including ARM9 CPU
LG has released specs for its upcoming Chocolate BL20 handset via a developer page devoted to the device. As previously believed, the touchphone will get a 2.4-inch screen with a 240x320 resolution, along with a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus. LG calls it a "simple touch phone" that can connect to HSDPA data networks with 3.6Mbps speeds. There is otherwise quad-band GSM network support and dual-band UMTS compatibility.
Otherwise, there is an ARM9-based CPU, along with Bluetooth 2.1 support, a USB 2.0 connection and microSDHC card support for adding up to 16GB of storage capacity. It has 256MB of onboard memory, while RAM is set at 128MB. Videos and music can be played back, and there is a built-in FM tuner.
A release date and an approximate price for the BL20 are still unknown.
