LG's Glimmer for Alltel

LG Glimmer

It appears that Alltel is set to launch a new device, known as the LG Glimmer, soon. The Glimmer is a slider handset that sports a large 2.8" touchscreen display and 2 megapixel camera. It also is capable of 3G data speeds, thanks to its support of Alltel's EV-DO network, and comes equipped with Bluetooth and a microSD card slot.

The Glimmer weighs in at a slightly hefty 127g (4.5oz) but still features a rather thin 15mm (.6") profile. While Alltel has yet to formally announce the device, LG's Korean offices put out a press release that spoke of its impending release.
