LG has extended its handset range with the made-for-messaging GW300. This social network friendly handset features a designated Facebook application similar to the LG GW520 providing instant and direct access, enabling users to maintain their all important online social statuses in real-time.

“It didn’t come as a surprise last week that Facebook announced its user number now totals 300 million, as the mobile industry is continuing to experience consumer demand for social networking focused devices. The new LG GW300 maintains LG’s dedication to bringing innovative social networking handsets to the market as they increasingly become the central communication point for avid social network users” says Jeremy Newing, head of marketing, LG Mobile UK and Ireland.

Keep an eye out for the new GW300 idents that are currently appearing on Channel 4 and E4. You can also watch them on the LG Blog’s YouTube channel.
