If we have to believe the Bluetooth SIG (the Bluetooth Special Interest Group| Wikipedia) LG’s C900 Windows Phone 7 handset would launch around September 28th. This is of course doesn’t quite inconsistent with what Microsoft’s COO Kevin Turner said before. Of course plans could always have changed or Turner might have made a mistake. However September still looks very early and it was recently rumoured that Microsoft won’t accept third party apps in its Marketplace before October.
But as Engadget points out: “The Bluetooth SIG has a long history of promoting its members’ “special interests” by leaking valuable tidbits about their handsets before they’re announced.” Phone Arena even knows that this lines up with AT&T’s marketing material. It’s interesting that AT&T — as the iPhone carrier in the USA — includes Windows Phone 7 in its line-up.
The LG phone in question is a QWERTY slider and the Bluetooth SIG make notion of a C900N, C900k, and C900B version. The LG C900 would be sold in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America.
