It also supports Bluetooth headsets, including stereo audio, and has a built-in speaker.

Availability
The LG-GD910 was developed from a prototype that the company first demonstrated in 2008. The LG-GD910 was first publicly shown at CES 2009. As it was a limited edition product, only a limited number were released in Europe and a few other countries. Despite its HSDPA capabilities, it lacks a built-in web browser. It also includes Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) capabilities, but this did not work in Korea. Orange confirmed that only SMS is fully working with stock firmware.
The LG-GD910 was launched in Europe during 2009 via the Orange network. It was launched in India in April 2010.
