We saw the Sony Ericsson Z770i a little while back and now a mild refresh arriving in the form of this lovely bit of flip-candy called the Z780i. SEMC Blog outed this handset’s WAP profile recently and now they’ve brought us a few thumbnails of what appears to be a Z770i twin but with a more reasonable looking keypad. There aren’t many details to spare aside from what you can see above but there do seem to be profiles for both ‘a’ and ‘i’ models — with ‘a’ bringing us some frequencies in the 3G range that’ll we’ll be able to care about over here. That’s it for now children, but we’ll be back with more info as soon as we hear about it.

Korea’s Electronic Times is quoting a mysterious LG “official” as saying that the company’s Voyager — the high-end touchscreen flipper currently on Verizon — will be making the leap to both AT&T and Sprint before the year’s out. Even though that isn’t necessarily an outlandish thing to believe (Verizon’s exclusivity period probably lasts 12 months at most, after all), it implies that at least two additional versions of the Voyager would have to be in the works: a CDMA piece without MediaFLO for Sprint and, of course, a GSM variant for AT&T. The news comes on the heels of LG’s triumphant claim that they’ve shipped a whopping 1.1 million Voyagers since launch — a pretty impressive number considering that the phone just launched at the very tail end of 2007 — and a number that could pretty easily triple if these other carrier deals turn out to be legit.
