FYI... The LG presser is going on right now. Engadget is live blogging. So far they have just announced the LG Optimus Black. No real specifications right now or availability but I am sure it will come out.

... but has anybody seen any type of spec for either of these devices? I have seen the specs on the new Samsung device and they are pretty impressive. Only a single core but 1.2Ghz. 1Gb Ram. 4.5" samoled+ screen. I would like to compare the Sammy with these.
