LG Cookie (KP500?) has a proprietary OS, but is nevertheless a good buy.

Costs a hundred quid (Rs. 7K) in the UK. Flash UI is great and almost as quick as the iPhoneOS interface if not quicker. The lack of dedicated apps is a decisive factor and sound through the speakers is a little tinny. The default earphones supplied in the box are shite.

I heard its Symbian ???
The propiatary OS is the bomb I guess. Thats the reason people would prefer other phones.
It looked like something to PWN Nokia 5800 XpressMusic...

It's not Symbian but rather a proprietary OS that uses a Flash-based UI. As you may have observed, LG and Symbian don't mix very well.

LMAO @ the last statement. It would sold by the millions had LG priced it right. Unfortunately, at the current inflated price point, the Cookie is good, but not great.

looks like motorokr e6 part 2 to me if it has app-less OS.

Definitely it will be app-less as the developers have given a flash based OS and there primary aim while creating the OS was for visual appeal with the widgets thing and all

isn't there the slightest chance of developers creating atleast something ?
E6 could run MPlayer, couldn't it ?

A couple of Samsung phones run on a proprietary Flash-based UI. Perhaps someone could look into hijacking some apps from there.
