  • 1ghz Snapdragon processor
  • 5MP Camera
  • Capability to sync with projector accessory
  • 480×800 3.2″ LCD @ 16 million colors
  • 256mb ram, 512 rom
  • GPS
  • biometric scanner

The biometric scanner is an interesting feature mainly because its unique.  Although I’ve only used one myself (Sharp SH-01A) once. I think with the right applications it could easily be one of the best features of this device.  The sensor allows for not only security features (finger print recognition) but also functions as a small trackpad.  Below is demo of the unit using the sensor.  The LG Expo is available from ATT currently for 199.99 on contract / 449.99 no contract
