Last week, Nicole Lee told you about the rumored LG LX600 for Sprint, and this week we see that it has received the official nod from the Federal Communications Commission.

Only the most passionate cell phone geeks know that the FCC holds a treasure trove of information on upcoming handsets. Because the FCC has to certify every phone sold in the United States, not to mention test its SAR rating, the agency's online database offers a lot of sneak peeks to those who dig. And to save you the trouble, Crave has combed through the database for you. Here are a selection of filings from the past week on new and upcoming cell phones. Click through to read the full report.

HTC PDA phone (POLA 160)
Huawei U1307
LG CP250
LG LX600
LG VX9600
Motorola
NEC FOMA KMP7N2R1-1A

Ok guys, every time you run one of these posts you say "Only the most passionate cell phone geeks know that the FCC holds a treasure trove of information on upcoming handsets" or something like it and you know what? Thanks to you, I know that and have for a while and I'm not a big cell phone geek. I'm just a Crave reader.
