Apple’s iPhone has given the mobile phone market a kick up the backside as rival manufacturers search for innovation to rival the huge success of the number one smartphone, and this week saw a number of new handsets that are set for release during 2009, none more innovative than LG’s Touch Watch (G910).

LG released detailed information about their latest mobile phone at the recent World Mobile Congress in Barcelona. The Touch Watch will allow users to step into the shoes of Michael Knight, Inspector Gadget and James Bond by chatting to their pals via video call simply by talking into the Touch Watch. I jest you not, the future is here…

The Touch Watch encompasses Bluetooth technology, plus 3G and touchscreen navigation, as well as looking sleek, sexy and a little bit unreal – post modernism gone mad, but I like it!
