Some uninspiring pictures of the LG GD900 have floated about since the start of MWC 2009, however thanks to a hero at Engadget, we have been treated to a video of this astounding looking mobile phone – albeit enclosed in its own Magneto-style prison – where the transparent keypad is slowly revealed.

The GD900′s feature set is being similarly concealed and all we seem to have is that the phone will be wrapped in a cool brushed metallic body, be 3G with HSDPA and measure around 13mm in thickness.  Like we said, LG haven’t been exactly forthcoming with this one!

However, it’s the keypad we’re all interested in anyway, and it really does look something special.  Unsurprisingly, it’s the world’s first transparent keypad and will glow seductively when the phone is slid open.  For now, as the GD900 is not planned for release until next quarter, the pictures and video are all we have, but let’s be honest, when a phone looks this good, what else do we need?
