Sprint may be getting non-smartphone qwerty slider from LGHot on the heels of Sprint’s Muziq announcement, Sprint may be getting another phone added to its lineup. It may be just a rumor, but we have a feeling that this one will pan out. Word on the street has it that Sprint may be getting a new non-smartphone QWERTY slider from LG. The thing is, this would perfectly fill a niche that has not really yet been addressed. The un-named handset is rumored for a Q4 2007 release. Expect to see a camera (of some sort), Bluetooth, microSD, and that sliding qwerty-keyboard. Morning Paper pegs the unit at a $200 price point (after contract rebates). This thing is likely to be a hit with the SMS text-happy folks out there.

    LG Rumor is great i love it but Sprint made it to where you can only use the bluetooth for useless things so that you have to buy their ringtones online which totally sucks!! but it is a great phone super easy to text on
