LG Shine will be released in the US and Europe in 2007

LG shine chocolate
The LG Shine is the Korean company’s next attempt to change the landscape of the cellphone market. Though one can argue that the Chocolate phone has made little effect when compared to the Motorola RAZR, I believe that it was the handset that brought music to the forefront of consumers’ minds when purchasing a new cellphone.

The next model up from LG is the Shine that we had dropped back in October. Where the Chocolate phone excels in music geared to teenagers and other music junkies, the Shine’s positioning has it for professionals. Named for its shiny mirror-like facade and stainless steel casing, the Shine features a 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, an MP3 player, and a scroll wheel on the front.

No longer will it be exclusive to Korea, as LG plans to introduce it to the European and North American market next week at CES. In their effort to make it a big bash for the sleek stainless-steel Shine, the LG folks plan to set up a booth made entirely of stainless steel. The GSM version will be released in Europe in the first quarter of 2007 and soon thereafter in the rest of Asia and the United States. No pricing information has been announced yet.
