The LG Prada II has been finally released in Europe. As you probably know, the Prada II is a designer phone for all the fashion types out there, so the price here corresponds the value - €600, which is about $832, take it or leave it.

It has been confirmed that AT&T will soon be launching the LG CF750 Secret on its network. The latest rebate form for the carrier -- dated December 26 to January 24, lists a $50 discount on the Secret along with the rugged Motorola VA76r "Tundra". Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that the phone will launch in that timeframe.

LG has launched a nice handset in Korea, called the LG-LU1600 Ice Cream Phone 2. The phone is called so due to its ice-cream inspired colors, including snow white, sky blue and peach pink. In addition it comes with cute emoticons that will be visible thanks to its orange-colored LED.

Speaking of features, the LU1600 is 15.5mm thick, supports EV-DO Rev.
