We took a look at the LG VX8360 at CES 2009, but now we've spotted it at Verizon's online store.

The LG VX8360, if you recall, is a mid-tier flip phone with EV-DO, a 1.3-megapixel camera, external music player controls, stereo Bluetooth, a microSD card slot, and of course access to Verizon's V Cast services. And for $50 with a two-year contract, the VX8360 certainly fits the bill as an affordable 3G handset.

P.S. We just tried to click on the link to see if we could buy the phone, and it seems it's not available just yet. We'll keep you posted on this.

Lame! The chocolate 3 should have been this and the real chocolate 3 should have been the U.S. Cellular Rhythm with a better camera.
