Engadget Mobile Gets Facetime With the LG KS20

"Putting Windows Mobile 6's user interface at ease with fat fingers is a monumental challenge -- but it's not a challenge manufacturers are shying away from. Perhaps they see devices like the iPhone as a threat they can't ignore any longer, or perhaps they're simply tired of waiting for Microsoft to roll something truly revolutionary, but at any rate, companies like HTC with its TouchFLO interface are doing pretty much everything they can to keep the stylus firmly locked away. That's where the LG KS20 comes into play, which steals as much of the Viewty's identity as it can while still keeping Windows Mobile 6 under the hood."
Engadget Mobile has put together a little bit of commentary with a lot of pictures on the LG KS20. Mostly it seems to be a nice looking phone with fair capabilities, but don't expect to be wow'd by this WM 6 contender, especially with the lack of widespread North American HSDPA. From the pictures, it looks like it would be a real fingerprint and scratch magnet! Anyone played with the KS20 and if so, was it a keeper?
