Mark Levinson lends his name to the LG LB3300 - LG's Rhapsody in Music for audiophiles

Wannabe audiophiles will be happy to hear that Mark Levinson has lent his name to the new LG Rhapsody in Music slider phone - known as the LG LB3300 - for the South Korean masses. We say “wannabe” because there no amount of fancy branding or gadgetry that can bring audiophile-quality sound to a handset. But hey, if South Koreans want to think a Mark Levinson-branded phone will give them hi-fi sound quality, let them spend their money. That being said, the LG LB3300 boasts an impressive facade, adorned with an LED-backlight touch-sensitive wheel, 1GB of onboard storage (with up to 4GB of expandable memory), 2 megapixel camera, terrestrial DMB, and Bluetooth with A2DP that can steam to two listeners simultaneously. We like the look of the handset, but we can’t imagine that a fairly run-of-the-mill music-phone it worth the extra Won to be associated with Mark Levinson’s name.
