In a move likely to stoke controversy over Android fragmentation, Angry Birds developer Rovio Mobile has announced that, because of issues with low-power smartphones proving unable to cope with the game's processing requirements, they will be developing a second, "lightweight" version for users with such phones. "We have hesitated to create multiple versions of Angry Birds for the Android platform" the company said, "but judging by the feedback we have received, we feel that by providing a lightweight solution, we are doing a favour for our fans."

With scant details buried in a Korean-language press release, we stopped by the LG booth to find out more.

LG's second Android smartphone has been launched, the LG GW880, and Chinese Mobile buyers will be the first to get it.

LG GW620 Eve QWERTY Android phone discovered

Chris Davies, Jul 17th 2009 Discuss [1]

Some in-depth sleuthing of LG's website has thrown up details of an unannounced Android device from the company, the LG GW620. Tipped to support UMTS/HSDPA and GPRS (though with no sign of which bands it supports), the GW620 also has a QWERTY keyboard and a half-VGA 320 x 480 display that we presume is a touchscreen. Interestingly, the handset has also been spotted previously by Cellpassion at the WiFi Alliance [pdf link], where it went by the name of the LG Eve. They had no other details - at the time it was unknown that the Eve was to be an Android device - but its presence on a testing site does indicate that the GW620 may be close to release.
