Fashionista phone for email addicts

Well, we got the nod it was coming last month, but now we know the intimate details of the LG Prada II handset.

On the face of it, that's not a lot, LG keeping the minimalist shape of the original. But there are a few surprises under the bonnet. For a start, there is that much-leaked slide-out (and super-slim) keyboard, perfect for knocking out those fashion blogs or catching up with your email mountain. And if you just want to call and text, the old 'on-screen' keypad is still there.

The new version also offers 3G/HSDPA connectivity and video calling, full HTML browsing, Wi-Fi and as you would expect from LG, a decent camera, specifically a 5MP job with Schneider-Kreuznach certified lens. As we mentiomed previously, Europe gets this first and probably before the turn of the year, just in case you're already doing your list for Santa.
