Just wanted to say hello. 

I am seriously considering getting the eXpo next month.  I have an upgrade available then.  I really like the specs and style of this phone but I'm a bit leary of LG after owning an Incite for less than a month.  I tried two Incites and they both kept corrupting my SD card.  I can't remember the exact sequence that caused it now but I was able to replicate the issue for AT&T and switched back to an iPhone.

I am currently using a Pure and I am very happy with it.  The only reason I'm thinking of getting a different phone is because I really want a better processor and the d-pad like fingerprint sensor.

Having said that, I've read a few reviews that complained about the fp sensor not really being useful as a d-pad.  I'm just curious what the members here feel about that. 

I also think it may be better to wait for the HTC Obsession with WM7.  The Obsession will have a 3.7" screen and I feel that will actually be too large for my taste.  I like the screen size on the Pure and the eXpo is the same.

I realize this is an LG forum but I'm really looking for some honest likes/don't likes on this phone.  I realize no device is perfect but I'm really interested in this one.

Thanks in advanc,
Bill

Hello Bill =)

I saw the same reviews you did about the fingerprint scanner and it worried me but its better then i thought it would be after you get used to it. Its actually really cool once you get the hang of it but i find it unusable for certain types of games which is disappointing.. racing games are impossible on this phone unless in landscape using the keyboard for movement, the scanner CAN control it but its just very difficult. But for browsing and general moving around the phone its really cool.

Do be aware that like the incite, the expo's G-Sensor is inaccessable by 3rd party applications. Although someone is in the process of making "SensorLib" which they claim has been tested and is able to access the expo's gsensor. But its not released yet and theres no set date.

The processor is extreme. You rarely have to wait on anything. By far, my favorite part of this phone.
