S60 lovers on AT&T, rejoice — your on-contract, branded phone has arrived. The Nokia 6650 has started flowing into stores today, bringing an N75 successor that ups the beauty factor by a country mile and adds 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2 for good measure. It’s apparently running $70 with a two-year deal after rebate, so if Symbian flips are your cup o’ tea, get on it.

Looks like Canada isn’t the only country out there getting kisses from Cleo. According to documents recently filed with the FCC, the sassy cellphone looks set to emerge Stateside on Verizon with the definitely unsassy designation U440. Will the stylish phone — with its full QWERTY keyboard, 1.3 megapixel camera, A2DP stereo Bluetooth, threaded SMS text messaging and up to 8GB storge — make its domestic debut soon? Not soon enough, we think!

We’ve been staring for hours, but no matter how hard we attempt to think outside of the box, we can’t figure out what LG’s attempting to do with the design of the KC560. It is for disco lovers? Tweens? Fanatics of anything gilded? The mobile, which is clearly having an identity crisis at its core, has just been revealed over in China. Specs wise, it’s packing a 2.4-inch QVGA display, plenty of LED accents, a 3-megapixel camera, inbuilt music player, Bluetooth 2.0, USB, an FM radio, microSD card slot and tri-band GSM connectivity. Word on the street places a $300 to $350 unsubsidized price tag on it, which makes us even more sure this is really a limited run meant specifically for Diana Ross and her loyal posse.
