LG 550 mobile phone at CTIA 2006
LG showed off a slurry of new phones at CTIA 2006, including this, the rather nifty looking LG 550. A CDMA phone with EV-DO support, the LG 550 features iPod-style music-keys on the front and has a 1.3 megapixel camera, FM radio and MP3 player.

LG also showed off another five mobile phones, most of which were low-end affairs. One phone of note, however, was the LG 8300 GPS phone.

The LG 8300 features GPS for location-based services. In addition, it also streams music over Bluetooth (it supports A2DP profile for stereo sound via Bluetooth), supports EV-DO networks and features a 1.3-megapixel camera.

And that’s about it. Despite a grand-sounding press release, LG offered few new phones of note at CTIA 2006. Still, this is the fourth major mobile show ‘n tell event in as many months, and even LG can’t announce major new products at every one (although that hasn’t stopped Samsung!).
