Following the announcement of its bigger brother- the GS500 Cookie Plus, LG GS290 the third Cookie has hit the market now. Though its camera resolution lacks 3G, it retains the cartoon UI and standard audio jack.
A month ago LG had announced two new Cookie handsets- the GS500 Cookie Plus and the GS290 however disclosed only the specs of the Cookie Plus. Fortunately LG set that right with the latest announcement of GS290 Cookie Fresh.
The spec sheet of the model resembles the original Cookie and while a standard 3.5mm jack is added here, the camera of the set is downgraded to 2 megapixel resolution. The rest of features are as usual. The set has a 3-inch resistive touchscreen, Bluetooth, FM radio and microSD card slot.
The LG GS290 Cookie Fresh will be made available in ten vibrant colors across the markets of Europe and Asia in the second half of this month.

The Motorola Backflip which came out this weekend for AT&T looked like a standard mid-range Android device. According to the critics it is completely bush league.
While the Backflip is loaded with AT&T’s bloatware, the default Google is completely replaced with Yahoo. AT&T is doing business so it cannot be blamed for blindly copying Android but you can blame them for not allowing you to delete those carrier apps or install apps that don’t come from the Android Market.
According to Phandroid, programs cannot be installed from other app stores even if an individual puts them into his microSD card while it’s connected to his computer. This could be AT&T approach to ensure that the Backflip Android experience isn’t tainted by bad apps but it goes directly against what the company said it planned to do with the operating system.
Last year the AT&T Mobility’s CEO, Ralph de la Vega opined that, the Android is liked as an operating system on its own, however the company wants to make sure that the company as well as the customers have the option to put applications on that device that are not just Google applications. Therefore when the G1 came out and T-Mobile launched it, it’s primarily a Google phone.
The company wants to give customers the choice of other applications on that device and not just the same Google applications.
Eric Zemen of Phonescoop added to the scene by mentioning on his Twitter stream that the MotoBlur on his Backflip gave him the option to set up myFaves at a time when myFaves is an exclusive calling feature of T-Mobile.
