LG's shiny metallic slider, the Shine, is finally heading toward the States some time in '07. Part of its "Black Label" series of phones, which includes the Chocolate, the Shine features a 2-megapixel camera, a scroller, Bluetooth and MP3 playback. The Black Label, by the way, is a fancy way of saying "this is a pretty phone that doesn't really have a lot of features."

There's both CDMA and GSM versions planned, so it's up in the air whether Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile or Cingular will get it first. Our guess is on Verizon, seeing as LG's got a pretty good working relationship with them already. – Jason Chen
