LG Viewty (LG KU990)

Apparently, this was the first time the phone was being shown in Asia. It was certainly a bold step by LG to put the phone before a crowd of serious photographers, most of whom came armed with their multi megapixels huge SLR cameras.
LG even when one step forward by making available 10 units of the phone for LensaMalaysia members to try out and provide feedback. These phones will be given to selected members to use for a few days later this month.
So, what did I think of the phone?

From the little that I saw, I think LG has a winner in this phone. The Viewty, aside from its odd model name, is a serious piece of photography equipment made in the guise of a mobile phone.
The phone comes with specifications that put digital cameras to shame. The Korean executive who spoke at the dinner said that LG made this model in response to feedback from the surveys it carried out. They must have because it’s got what I would wish for in a cameraphone.

Of course it has the obligatory touch features made so popular by the iPhone. The 3” screen is gorgeous and serves as a huge image finder. There’s no keypad, only call and end call buttons. Beyond that, users will rely on the touchscreen. There’s also HSDPA and other vital connectivity stuff on the phone.

But it is in the camera department that it really shines out.
It’s got manual focus and an image stabilizer. Video features are equally impressive. It can capture video at a stunning 120 frames per second which translates into super clear playback later. Another interesting feature sure to delight the Net Generation folks is automatic uploading to YouTube.

Suffice to say that I am impressed. Who needs an iPhone or for that matter the Nokia N95 now that the Viewty is coming? Even the Sony Ericsson K850 5MP phone expected around the same time is going to have a torrid time against the LG Viewty.

The 5 S

The 5S Process, or simply "5S", is a structured program to systematically achieve total organization, cleanliness, and standardization in the workplace. A well-organized workplace results in a safer, more efficient, and more productive operation. It boosts the morale of the workers, promoting a sense of pride in their work and ownership of their responsibilities.


"5S" was invented in Japan, and stands for five (5) Japanese words that start with the letter 'S': Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu, and Shitsuke. Table 1 shows what these individual words mean. An equivalent set of five 'S' words in English have likewise been adopted by many, to preserve the "5S" acronym in English usage. These are: Sort, Set (in place), Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. Some purists do not agree with these English words - they argue that these words have lost the essence of the original 5 Japanese words.

Seiri

The first step of the "5S" process, seiri, refers to the act of throwing away all unwanted, unnecessary, and unrelated materials in the workplace. People involved in Seiri must not feel sorry about having to throw away things. The idea is to ensure that everything left in the workplace is related to work. Even the number of necessary items in the workplace must be kept to its absolute minimum. Because of seiri, simplification of tasks, effective use of space, and careful purchase of items follow.

Seiton

Seiton, or orderliness, is all about efficiency. This step consists of putting everything in an assigned place so that it can be accessed or retrieved quickly, as well as returned in that same place quickly. If everyone has quick access to an item or materials, work flow becomes efficient, and the worker becomes productive. The correct place, position, or holder for every tool, item, or material must be chosen carefully in relation to how the work will be performed and who will use them. Every single item must be allocated its own place for safekeeping, and each location must be labeled for easy identification of what it's for.

Seiso

Seiso, the third step in "5S", says that 'everyone is a janitor.' Seiso consists of cleaning up the workplace and giving it a 'shine'. Cleaning must be done by everyone in the organization, from operators to managers. It would be a good idea to have every area of the workplace assigned to a person or group of persons for cleaning. No area should be left uncleaned. Everyone should see the 'workplace' through the eyes of a visitor - always thinking if it is clean enough to make a good impression.

Seiketsu

The fourth step of "5S", or seiketsu, more or less translates to 'standardized clean-up'. It consists of defining the standards by which personnel must measure and maintain 'cleanliness'. Seiketsu encompasses both personal and environmental cleanliness. Personnel must therefore practice 'seiketsu' starting with their personal tidiness. Visual management is an important ingredient of seiketsu. Color-coding and standardized coloration of surroundings are used for easier visual identification of anomalies in the surroundings. Personnel are trained to detect abnormalities using their five senses and to correct such abnormalities immediately.

Shitsuke

The last step of "5S", Shitsuke, means 'Discipline.' It denotes commitment to maintain orderliness and to practice the first 4 S as a way of life. The emphasis of shitsuke is elimination of bad habits and constant practice of good ones. Once true shitsuke is achieved, personnel voluntarily observe cleanliness and orderliness at all times, without having to be reminded by management.
