Alright, so maybe we harshed on Motorola for rehashing the original RAZR (or RZR, as the case may be) yet again just a little bit too soon. phoneArena has scored shots of a phone claimed to be a “VU30″ destined for Verizon, and while the phone’s name probably rings just a little too familiar for LG’s comfort, the design language seems distinctly un-Motorola and unlike anything we’ve really seen with other major manufacturers. It’s not a groundbreaking design we’re looking at in this place by any stretch of the imagination, but if Moto’s looking at cremating and spreading the ashes of the RAZR look and feel once and for all, we think that’s a pretty wise move on the long road to profitability. Not much else is known about the VU30 at the moment, so we’ll keep a close eye on the situation.

Oh wow, what a way to accessorize, a lovely burgundy handset complete with matching nail polish, way to go Samsung. The G600 isn’t a new brand handset, we saw it some months ago in Bot. the FCC archives and via the Anycall G608 version. A quick jaunt through the specs shows quad-band GPRS / EDGE, a 5 megapixel camera with auto focus and image stabilization, 7 hour talk time and about 15 days of stand by, and did we mention it at this time includes nail polish? No word on what it’ll set you back or who plans on carrying it, but guys, no need to shy away, there are likely plenty of things you can use that paint for apart from polishing up your piggies.
