LG are about to announce the launch of a new model that may or may not be part of the Chocolate range. The phone will be called the KU580 and, according to sources, might be branded a “Hero” as well.

The KU580 looks very similar to the Chocolate Platinum with its touch sensitive red navigational lights and sleek lines. Internet browsing will be very user friendly thanks to the 240 x 320 landscape full colour screen. Other features include a 2 megapixel camera (when will LG catch up with Sony Ericsson and Nokia and offer 3+ megapixels?), FM radio, Bluetooth 2.0 and VGA video calling.
