Google Services on LG Phones

LG Electronics (LG) and Google have announced a global collaboration to pre-install Google's services on millions of LG mobile phones.

In a joint statement, both the companies said that mobile users around the world would now be able to easily search for information, find locations, update blogs and manage email while on the move.

Talking about this partnership, Paul Bae, Vice President - Product Planning Team, LG, said, "Building on our efforts to set new standards for wireless handsets, we are excited to partner with Google to offer extra value to consumers with enhanced mobile Internet experiences. LG's mobile devices, combined with Google, will provide consumers with easy access to their favorite Internet services even without a PC and make it easy for them to stay connected while in motion."

The LG-Google handsets will have host of other features including Google Maps for mobile, an application that enables users to view maps and satellite imagery, find local businesses, and get driving directions; Gmail for mobile, a Java-based application that brings more speed, convenience and functionality to the mobile Gmail experience; and Blogger Mobile, an application to upload/download images and text to blog from mobile devices.

Deep Nishar, Director - Product Management, Google, added, "We are pleased to work with LG to make it easier than ever for mobile Internet users to have powerful applications and personalized information at their fingertips. Users around the world now have more options for accessing information while on the go through search and Gmail. With applications like Blogger, users are now free to express themselves from wherever they are in the world."

It is, meanwhile, learnt that select LG handsets, pre-installed with Google products and services, will be shipped globally including North America, Europe and Asia starting in the second quarter of this year. These handsets will create a more dynamic user experience, including one click access to Google search through an icon in the application menu.

Besides, LG plans to launch mobile handsets pre-installed with Google and products and services for the next few years with at least ten new handsets in 2007. And through this new partnership, LG and Google will jointly market LG-Google handsets.

Its really going to be rocking my dear friends. All Google services on one handset, it will be great. Hope this service will launch for CDMA & GSM both.
