GC900 Phone & Features

I finally sold my trusty Sony-Ericcson P900 and iPod touch and got a convergence device.

This is the LG GC-900.



There are fairly obvious features:

• 8 megapixel camera
• 720x480 video
• 3 inch touchscreen (800x480 pixels)
  
• Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS
• MicroSD-expandable
  

All of this means that instead of a camera, an iPod and a GPS unit (still got my TomTom) I've got a single device.

However, I discovered after mucking around in the menus that there are a bucketload of hidden features:

• 120 frames per second high-speed video (slow-mo)
  
• 8 frames per second low-speed video (Benny Hill mode)
  
• 3GP video support up to 720 pixels wide (DVD resolution)
• MS Office document support
• Support for Flash games
• Integrated email
• 1.5 GB built-in memory, up to 32 GB memory card
  
• Second video camera
• Digital FM tuner
• In-camera video editing
• Multitasking (multiple apps in memory)
  

I had the P900 for five years. It looks like I'll have the GC900 for about that long too.
