LG and Franklin Covey Present Highly Uneffective Cell Phone

You've heard of stephen covey right. I am sure you have, he is highly effective, and he has several habits that have helped him stay that way. Personally, I have never gotten into his books. As far as leadership mantras go, Stephen Covey's has never really impressed me. The same could be said for the LG-SU100, a cell phone being released as a joint venture between Franklin Covey and LG.

As far as specifications go, the LG-SU100 will feature a 3" OLED touchscreen, bluetooth connectivity, integrated camera, and a DMB TV tuner for Korean stations. On the inside, you will find streamlined versions of the Franklin Covey planning software based on the paper-based traditional planner. Overall, the package seems highly 'meh.

The phone will be released soon in Korea (they are highly effective over there apparently), and then it will most likely filter stateside. If you are a planner freak, so much so that mobile Outlook and a Blackberry are not enough for you, then the LG-SU100 might be for you.

    If you would like to implement some of Stephen Covey’s best ideas, you can use this web aplication:

    http://www.Gtdagenda.com

    You can use it to manage and prioritize your Goals (in each of your life’s categories), projects and tasks, in an intuitive interface. It has a Checklists section, for the repetitive activities you have to do, important but not urgent (Quadrant II, for example your routines/habits). Also, it features a Schedules section and a Calendar, for scheduling you time, activities and for the weekly review.

    Some features from GTD are also present, like Contexts and Next Actions.

    And it’s available on the mobile phone too, so you can access it wherever you are.
