Telus tantalizes with LG Chocolate GiG music phone

Americans may know the pictured handset by another name (psst... it's Chocolate 3, you knew that!), but Telus Mobility customers will soon be referring to it as the LG Chocolate GiG. Available now on the Canadian carrier, said flip phone offers up 1GB of internal storage, an incredibly convenient 3.5-millimeter headphone jack, a spinning scroll wheel, 2-megapixel camera, 2.2-inch QVGA main display and stereo Bluetooth support. You'll also get access to Telus mobile radio (XM) as well as Telus mobile music, both of which should keep you adequately stocked with artfully imposed sine waves. It's available now for the taking at $99.99 (3-year contract), $199.99 (2-year deal), $249.99 (1-year agreement) or $299.99 without any obligations.

i had leaked shots of it but my tips to engadget got ignored. i even have shots of the telus storm. but no point in sending them if im going to be ignored (twice)


anyways. phone is overpriced. the choclate 3 is the same price as the dare on a 3 year contract. does that even make sense to anyone?

That is great and all, but where the hell is Telus' Touch Pro?!? It was supposed to be out months ago!
