LG Electronics has unveiled its first high-end cameraphone, the LG Viewty.

Designed for easy sending, sharing and viewing of photos and video, the wireless handset is scheduled for release in Europe in about six weeks, with global release scheduled for the end of 2007.

An LG executive said that the company hopes to win 10 to 15 percent of this market segment before July of 2008.

LG says that the phone will include a touchscreen, a 5.1-megapixel camera and a hot key for uploading videos to YouTube.

LG Electronics also said its first Windows Mobile-based smartphone, the LG-KS20, which includes a touchscreen and HSDPA connections will be ready in the fourth quarter of this year.
