If you frequently visit any part of Asia such as China, Singapore, Korea, you will already know that they have got a number of dual sim card mobiles, made by their own native brand. But what we have got here is one by LG, called the LG KS660, its the latest dual sim phone from LG which runs on a tri-band network. This handset allows users to have both their business and personal lines concurrently on a single device without having to switch sim cards. This function is also ideal for backpackers or travellers.
The KS660 has a 3.0-inch WQVGA (240×400) TFT touch-screen display with feedback, 5.0-megapixel camera with autofocus, flash, and video recording (720×480), 50MB internal memory, microSDHC slot and integrated accelerometer. The phone will hit China, Russia and few more places by early 2009. If you’re in Europe or the US, you’ll still need to wait abit, no idea for how long though!

Dual SIM cards are becoming essential for those of us that travel frequently. My regular home network charges me about $1 a minute to call from abroad but I can pick up a SIM card in the supermarket that will enable me to make calls for 10c a minute when I’m abroad. The catch is that the supermarket SIM charges me $1 to make calls at home! Up to now I’ve been carrying two phones but this is a real pain.
