Perhaps “Sangria” was just a little too alcoholic for a teen-oriented device? Samsung’s sliding QWERTY dumbphone for AT&T has been christened “Propel,” it seems — and we’ve at this time gotten the word from two independent sources, so we’re feeling pretty good about it. Until AT&T changes its mind, anyway. The phone looks halfway decent, appears to support AT&T Navigation, and at the $80 we’re hearing AT&T will be asking for it out the door on contract after rebates, they could sell pretty well — especially when you consider that they’ll be available in red, green, and blue.

When, pray tell, was the last time you saw an LG running Windows Mobile on AT&T? Go ahead, take your time, we’ll wait. Still struggling over there? Yeah, you’re not plan to think of one — trust us. Looks like that’s finally about to change this year with the so-called Incite, a Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional beast that we’re hearing AT&T hopes to launch in time for Festivus celebrations. We don’t have any photography to ogle yet, but the specs sound dreamy: mirrored flush 400 x 240 touchscreen, 3-megapixel autofocus camera with flash, AGPS, 3.6Mbps HSDPA, WiFi, and a full metal body that runs 106.95 x 55 x 13.9mm — in other words, this thing could conceivably out-KS20 the KS20. Yikes!

LG's KC780 8 megapixel cameraphone likes your smile, not your pimples

LG, a major player in the cameraphone megapixel wars, is aiming to knock out the competition via a one-two punch of the KC920 Renoir and the newly official KC780. That latter phone still lacks a cute nickname, but at this time has a few official specs to go along with its resolution. Just 13.9mm thick, it sports a 2.4-inch LCD on the front and an unsurprisingly Schneider-Kreuznach certified lens on the back, the latter augmented by some advanced “face-enhancing features” like smile detection and Beauty Mode to digitally smooth blemishes. It should perform decently in low light, courtesy of an ISO 1600 shooting mode and built-in image stabilization; good things Bot. because we don’t expect that tiny flash will brighten any room. The phone records videos at 640 x 480, and interestingly, it can act as a wireless Bluetooth webcam for a PC. Price is unconfirmed, but European release is coming next month ahead of a worldwide launch “later.”
