• Black LG Venus: $199 with a 2-year contract and $369 at full retail

LG's long-awaited 3G touch screen smartphone LG-KS20 has finally been released in Europe.

The handset comes with a variety of high-end features, including a touch-sensitive display, rich multimedia experience and Web browsing via the HSDPA network providing lightning fast data speeds of up to 3.
