Sportin’ Wood With A Full Metal Jacket

Just last month, LG added a couple of new colors to the Shine line. Well, pink and gold, make room for wood! Not real wood, of course, but stainless steel etched in a wood grain pattern. LG’s latest addition to the Shine line is sporting wood, but it’s all Shine underneath! The LG LB2005H slider features DMB-TV capabilities, a 2 megapixel camera with optics from Schneider Kreuznach and a 2X digital zoom, the obligatory MP3 player and Bluetooth v 1.2 capabilities. You can stream your music to a Bluetooth headset and the Shine also offers a USB port and will take a micro SD card up to 2 Gb if you happen to have one laying around.

The Shine’s screen is a 2.2-inch TFT LCD - 240 x 320 and does 262K colors. And yes, it comes with all of the standard document readers.

All in all, the Shine looks like it will show you a pretty good time. The LB2005H isn’t available yet, but feel free to check out reviews of Woody’s mirrored brethren at Test Freaks.
