The wave of Android-based smartphones hitting Australian shores rose a little higher this morning with the news that another Samsung handset -- the Galaxy Ace -- would launch today on Telstra's flagship Next G network.
Telstra says its newest Android handset, the LG Optimus, is an “entry-level” model designed to appeal to “first-time smartphone owners”, but its pricing, cap and Telstra features suggests the Vodafone’s HTC Legend is firmly in its sights.
Pretend for a moment that you're a handset manufacturer like HTC, Samsung, Motorola, LG or Sony Ericsson. After months of negotiating with local carriers like Telstra, Optus and Vodafone and working with head office in the US or Asia to get stock for Australia, you finally launch your high-end Android smartphone in Australia. Then just a month or so later, Apple unexpectedly releases the iPhone 5.
While LG already announced its latest flagship last month, it was unclear when exactly the handset would be launching.
Please for all of the master optimus black, could you help me to fix the trouble of my optimus black ?,

And the case is : I've tried to connect my optimus black to my pc using the original kabel data, then my optimus black still not detected on my PC, i tried again to checking the port of the usb
While much of the world, including the U.S. and European markets, wait for the release of the LG Optimus Vu next month, LG is already moving on to the LG Optimus Vu II for the Korean market. LG indicates the new smartphone device will be released next month. The highlight of the device is the inclusion of an infrared control unit.
The nation’s number two telco Optus this afternoon confirmed plans to bust open the doors of the love nest created this week by Telstra and Motorola, confirming plans to launch the US mobile giant’s Xoom Android tablet on its own network just a month after the device goes on sale with Telstra.
A minor iteration of Samsung’s flagship smartphone will soon be making its way to Australian carriers Telstra and Optus with 4G LTE in tow. Dubbed the Galaxy S III 4G, it will be the first LTE-version of the device to launch outside of Korea with the company’s very own quad-core Exynos processor on board.
The first Android smartphone from Sony Ericsson hits Australia later this month on Optus, Telstra, Vodafone and Three, on contract and outright sale.
