My new LG Viewty did arrive on Saturday, it was charged, and after charging I checked that I could make calls, access the internet and send texts.
The touch screen is nowhere near as good as the iPod touch (therefore I guess nowhere near as good as the iPhone).
The 5MP images do look good though.
One possible downside is that it only supports a 2GB Micro SD card, I was hoping to get an 8GB card for it, now I might need to get a few 2GB cards and they’re not easy to swap you have to remove the battery to get to the card slot! No chance of hot-swapping cards on this phone.
Then I put it back in the box and you have to give LG credit, it was beautifully packed together with individual boxes for the earphones, power adapter and USB cable.

I have to say since owning an iPod touch, I’ve been surprised to find how unfriendly other touch-screens feel, notably the photo kiosk at Boots and my Garmin Nüvi GPS which feel like last century technology now.

Oh well 2GB cards are much cheaper anyhow and you can still get a good amount of music and 5MP images on there.
