"Many sites have been re-hashing a loosely worded story posted by T3.com that stated that LG's KS360 QWERTY slider would be re-released with the Android OS this summer as LG's first Android powered device." So said Android Authority and I have to fess up and say that TAP was one of the many sites that helped to perpetuate this rumour last month.
Fortunately Android Authority's Michael Oryl got in contact with LG Mobile UK's Jeremy Newing, the company's head of Marketing (T3's original source), who confirmed that this was never the case. He had simply stated that LG "is considering a similar form factor for social networking focused Android phones in the future." Just goes to show, even a respected site like T3 can get things horribly wrong sometimes.
