    Notice how the pic of the VX8700 looks like this
    LG Flip Shine for GSM?
    => Read my reviews for the Samsung Droid Charge, HTC ThunderBolt, and Casio G'zOne Commando.

    => VX8000 at Disney World:Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.

    You will notice in this pic (gsm) that the 5-way navi pad is square (and the SIM slot on the side):

    And is this one (cdma) the 5-way navi is round.

    1) GMS phones use a SIM slot.
    2) That protective slot area is a lot bigger than if it was for a MicroSD card access.

    This is what I have confirmed.

    This phone is a upgrade to the 8600
    It has a metal casing
    2mp Camera
    Nice external lcd, but still can't read messages from it
    Keypad seems alot like the 8600.

    They've changed the style up a bit here and there.
    Square directional and modified screen/bumpers.
    Looks much better now.
    The metal looks like sex.

    What does everyone think about the sideways external display?
    I'm not sure that I like the idea of having to turn the phone sideways in order to read it.
    But I do like the silver metal color, 2MP camera, and QVGA display specs.

    I've looked at each pic of the VX8700 and cannot find where the speaker is that would be used for Ringers/Music/Speakerphone.
    Can anyone find it?
    I also just noticed there's NO FLASH!

    Yeah, that kind of sucks--I don't think it's a deal-breaker, at least not for most, but stil not as convenient.

    It's possible that the external speaker might be that small "opening" that is present on the side toward the top of the phone above the volume rocker/buttons. I can't really see any other "openings" that would really qualify for an external speaker, unless something different is being used for this phone.

    As for the flash, it's true, it seems like there's no flash, but I believe the LG VX8600 and the LG VX8500 don't have it either. Not that it really makes things better for this phone, but that seems to be somewhat of a pattern with these recent/"thinner" phones--no flash, no external stereo speakers, etc.

    .
    I zoomed in really close to the black "dot" area above the volume buttons, and the shape of it looks just like a mini-USB port...which the phone does have.
    If this is the case, that it is the mini-USB ports, then the charger port OR MicroSD slot would be under the plastic cover on the bottom-left of the phone.

    Another thing...notice how these 2 images of the "real" VX8700 do not look alike?
    One of them has round 5-way navi buttons, but the other has square navi buttons.
    Also notice the mic placement is different.
