 "Galaxy S LCD Shown off on Samsung India Website")
After much waiting, it seems that the Galaxy S with it’s Super LCD display is now here on an official basis. We’ve seen it in the gray market stores and these store owners were even able to dish it out at the price it was expected at i.e. Rs. 19,990. Although Samsung hasn’t yet issued a formal Press Release for the device, Samsung India’s website has it plastered all over the place.

Samsung has thrown in Swype as an input option and their TouchWiz UI (version 4.0) running on top of an Android Froyo edition. The Galaxy S LCD is equipped with a 1 Ghz processor so speed should not be an issue.

We’re still waiting for an official announcement but, rest assured, it’s here nevertheless.
