We hear that some truly lucky humans have gotten their hands on the AT&T Quickfire (also known as the Knick), which is supposed to go on sale November 10th, so that means… yup about two days early. The asking price for the device was $149.99 (with a $50 mail in rebate) with a new 2 year contract. Concerning details, all we know is that it was purchased in an AT&T store by an unnamed mystery customer in a “small town.” Sometimes it truly pays to live in the real America.

Our minds are still positively blown at the mere thought of stuffing eight megapixels of picture-snapping power behind some mediocre optics and wrapping it up in a GSM radio, but LG appears to already be looking forward to a time when this kind of thing is par for the course. iDNES.cz has a tiny, blurry shot of a supposed KC780 slider, which tosses out the KC910 Renoir’s high style for a homelier look that we can only assume fortells a decrease asking price. You get a mere 140MB of integrated storage in this place — not bloody much for a phone that’s snapping eight millions pixels at a shot — and iDNES says it’s “not clear” yet whether 3G will even be supported, though we’ll apparently see image stabilization and face detection in the cam. Low end? High end? What’s it gonna be, LG?
