Although very little information is available from the FCC filings, Phone Scoop has learned that the LG VX8500 for Verizon will be a version of the Chocolate phone that has taken South Korea, and now Europe, by storm. The VX8500 still features the same slim sliding form as the original Chocolate, but the hidden D-pad keys on the original have been replaced with actual D-pad that integrates media playback controls. Features include a 1.3 Megapixel camera, Micro SD card slot, EV-DO high speed data and stereo Bluetooth (A2DP). The VX8500 also features a new version of the Verizon interface with on-screen menus for the side keys. The American Chocolate has not been announced yet, so no release date is known.
