LG Arena Uses SanDisk’s 8GB iNAND Embedded Flash Drive

SanDisk has officially announced at the 2009 MWC that LG Electronics’ most recent and fully loaded LG Arena multimedia handset will now include SanDisk’s iNAND 8GB Embedded Flash Drive, used by the handset as both a boot and data storage device. This will get rid of the need to have a separate boot device.

The LG Arena is the company’s flagship model for the first half of this year. It features enhanced audio and video technologies and a new 3D S-Class UI. SanDisk’s iNAND offers fast and reliable digital storage solutions. It is also completely capable of storing system boot code. So this helps conserve board space and reduces the complexity of design, while also lowering power consumption and cutting costs of having a separate boot device.
