Details of an upcoming 3G clamshell handset from LG have been revealed through the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) website.

LG's 3G clamshell has a camera built-in

Although initial tech specs are scarce, documents filed by LG with the FCC state that the phone supports dual-band connectivity and has a camera of unconfirmed quality built into the outer surface. Bluetooth is included for short-range data transfers, and a speakerphone’s featured too.
