Hasta La Gadget!

After making the rounds with Mr. Blurry Cam, Sprint’s rumored LG LS860 ‘Cayenne’ handset has taken a breather from its photo tour and made a stop at the FCC. The federal filing reveals that the smartphone uses LTE bands tailored for the Now Network (CDMA 850 / 1900; LTE Band 25) and totes NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, SVLTE (simultaneous voice and data) and the usual suspects of WiFi b/g/n and GPS. If other details previously gleaned from the grapevine hold true, the mobile will be powered by a flavor of Android 4.0, pack a 4-inch WVGA screen and a 1.2GHz dual-core S4 processor. There’s no word from LG or Big Yellow about the phone’s official debut, but its FCC appearance means that it could soon show up packaged and properly photographed in the US.

Remember LG’s QWERTY-keyboard toting phone that was caught in the wild a couple of months ago, the LG Cayenne (LS860)? Well it looks like the phone has surfaced again. @evleaks (who brought us the Samsung Jasper images earlier today) managed to snap a photograph of the phone today, and was generous enough to share it with the world. While it’s nothing that we haven’t seen before, the photograph is of pretty decent quality (unlike the previous blurry cam pictures). The phone’s slide out keyboard isn’t shown here, but we can see that it is running Ice Cream Sandwich based on its notification bar and phone power options.

The LG Cayenne is headed for Sprint and is said to pack a Qualcomm MSM8960 processor,  4″ WVGA display, 1GB of RAM, a 5-megapixel rear camera, LTE connectivity and Android Ice Cream Sandwich. No word on when the phone will be launched, but a leak like this suggests that it shouldn’t be too far away. Anybody pumped about getting an Android device with a physical keyboard?
