Sprint just launched a new slider, the LX290, that on the surface looks wholly unremarkable. T9 keypad, usual convenience keys for clock, e-mail, calendar and text, but the LX290 also hosts GPS and bundled Facebook and Photobucket photo sharing – not too shabby for a cheap little slider. If you don’t need much, you can pick up the LX290 from LG and Sprint right over here for a scant $3o.
