It has a cool AD for the Arena at the bottom, do check it out.

UPDATE : I have noticed that a lot of people are looking for information on the LG ARENA KM900, well till now its only T Mobile exclusively who is proposing the Arena in titan black so i guess the rest of us will have to content ourselves with the Silver one.
Also texting on the Arena is not an easy task at least for those who do not have small fingers as the virtual QWERTY keyboard is way too packed, on a six to seven word type, you would maybe hit only one or two correctly, let alone in the portrait mode.
However note that compared to the LG Renoir , the Arena records video in 3gp format and for those who would rely heavily on its browser , email attachments cannot exceed 1mb. Another unlikeness to the LG Renoir is that it does not have a large support for DivX/Xvid videos, you must use the video converting software found on the cd supplied together with the phone. Yet the Dolby Digital sound does make a difference
