Bell picks up LG Shine, if you can really call it that

'Round here, we think of a slider when you tell us so-and-so is launching the LG Shine, but Bell apparently has something a little different in mind. Canadians can now pick up the metal-clad Shine flip (again -- Bell's name, not ours) for a cool $130 CAD (about $134) on a three-year contract, offering the same EV-DO data, 2 megapixel cam, A2DP, and funky sideways external display as its VX8700 cousin on Verizon. For Bell's sake, we hope they don't go launching a Shine slider down the road -- 'cause what the heck are you going to call that then? Hmm?
