Orange is First to Launch LG Touch Watch Phone in Europe

Paris (ots/PRNewswire) - Orange today announces it will
be the first operator to offer the world's first Touch Watch phone
(LG G910) in Europe, bringing customers the latest in breakthrough
mobile technology in this tiny, wearable device from LG Electronics.
This market-first innovation, available from flagship stores across
Orange's European footprint later this year, will give Orange
customers the chance to enjoy a whole new way of communicating.

Yves Maitre, Senior VP of Devices at Orange says, "At Orange, we
are always finding new ways to bring mobility to our customers, from
the simplest phones to feature rich devices. Innovation is at the
heart of everything we do at Orange, and LG shares that vision.
Together, we are pleased to offer Orange customers the first
opportunity to experience this market leading Watch phone."

The compact and stylish wrist watch style phone comes with a
blue-tooth headset and features a full touch-screen interface, 3G
HSDPA and video-calling capabilities. Whether it is searching for
restaurants and making video conference calls, or watching sports
clips and listening to music on the built-in MP3 player, Orange
customers will be able to enjoy the same multimedia experience on a
watch, as they do on other mobile phones.

Yves continues, "This phone really manages to combine form with
functionality and its chic styling and mobile broadband connectivity
will no doubt appeal to all the early adopters out there. It is a
great addition to our range, showing that we can give customers the
latest in high-tech design for a totally new kind of mobile
multimedia experience, or if they choose, a simple device for calling
and texting."

Mr Harrison Lee, Senior Vice President & Head of European Mobile
Business, LG Electronics says, "Orange's long heritage in mobile
innovation and its proven success at bringing such technologies to
its customers means it is an ideal partner to bring the world's first
Touch Watch Phone to Europe."
