Does anyone know the prices of these phones? With a 1-2 year contract (I have a Korean friend who is going to put it in his name) I'm wondering what you had to pay up front and if you know any other phones that are with LG that have touch screen and internet access. Thanks in advance!
So far I'm thinking about Galaxy or Optimus 1, and my boyfriend is thinking about getting the reaction phone. What games are on the galaxy phone? Does the DMB work well?

is there any particular reason you only want SK/LG? KT will allow a 2 year contract for foreigners depending on your visa with or without some more stringent conditions.
If you're on an E2 you need 6 months left and a Korean credit card, if you're on an F4 (just a guess baed on your user name, could be wrong) you only need 3 months left and no credit card required.

Because I have a couple plan with my boyfriend so we have to be with the same company. Currently we are both with LG but his family is with SK so if we use SK his family gets a discount and if we stay with LG we also get a discount. So both of them are good for us. Not worried aboutt he plan I'm worried about what phone is good or not.

To be honest I haven't really looked at LGs line-up a whole lot. They've been really left out recently it seems in the whole smart phone deal. SK has been pushing the Galaxy S, and KT has the iPhone. As for LG.. nothing they've been putting out has been making waves.

A quick look at their website shows they have the Galaxy U.
According to the specs its more or less the same as the S but slightly smaller with a different display.

Hm so I'm guessing you don't have any of these phones right?
I'm pretty much decided on getting the Galaxy S as my friend works for all three phone companies and says its the best they have now. But I'm just wondering if anyone has this phone. The only information I can find is written in Korean and there arent many bad reviews so I'm just wondering if someone has anything negative to say about it.
