LG Viewty Silver now Available

The LG Viewty Silver is available from today, initially on T-Mobile. The Viewty has been an amazing success, sitting proudly at the top of the Top-Sellers chart for weeks now. This new version of the LG Viewty is cased in a quality silver casing.

I asked one of my colleagues in the office why the Viewty was her phone of choice and this is what she said:

The LG Viewty is a great handset. Its got an excellent camera and zoom for taking pictures on all occasions. Its also got great music storage too as I have several tunes stored onto mine.
The huge touchscreen would seem hard to use but I actually prefer it to the conventional keypad. Some would think this handset as just a fashion phone but I think its a lot more than that

The LG Viewty Silver is available to order now, click here for more info.
