Sure enough, that mysterious baby brick sitting next to the stretched-out BL40 is a direct followup to the last generation of LG Chocolates, called the BL42. The 3G slider is rumored to have a 240×320 display and a 5-megapixel camera.

The alleged specs aren’t much to get excited about, but make no mistake: This will be a popular phone. It’s a proud grandson of the line’s earliest models—with a slightly touchier front panel and (barely) tweaked styling—which sold about 10 million handsets worldwide, and continue to do well, despite being, well, old. Its beanpole brother can take care of the innovating; lil’ 42 can take care of the money. No price or availability yet. [AllAboutPhones via Slashgear]
