LG Chocolate Touch VX8575 listed on the FCC site

With the Versa, enV Touch, enV3 and Glance all released this year, you might be wondering what LG has planed for 2nd half of '09. Enter the VX8575, known as the Chocolate Touch. We first started hearing about it a few weeks ago, as it is rumored to be based on the highly anticipated BL40. Then it appeared on the internal BestBuy site with some other phones and with a date of August 23rd, though we've learned this is just a "placeholder" and not a real release date. Now the VX8575 has been approved by the FCC and posted to their site, but all images are under 6 month confidentiality. Going through the files that are posted, we see the device will have EVDO, but no mention if it's Rev A or the older Rev 0, as well as a Camera (doesn't list mega-pixels), Touchscreen, Bluetooth, MP3 player and GPS. It also appears the device will not have WiFi (why Verizon?!?) or an FM Transmitter like the Chocolate 3. Let 's hope the user interface and the rest of the features of the Chocolate Touch closely resemble that of the BL40.
