It seems that mobile phone users in the United States will soon be able to enjoy another nice-looking mobile phone, namely the LG KM900, also known as the LG Arena. The new device has been spotted at FCC and is reported to have received approvals to be distributed in the country under the name of KM900QA.

What QA in the handset's name stands for is not known at the moment, yet the device is heading towards AT&T's airwaves. In addition, it looks like the mobile phone will come with support for the carrier's 3G network, WCDMA 850/1900, and this operator seems to be the only one that will bring it in the States.

The handset has a lot of capabilities to offer, although it is not a smartphone, and the phone maker has recently announced that it received over one million pre-orders for the Arena since it officially unveiled it. The phone is already available for purchase in France.

If added by AT&T to its offering, the new LG Arena will provide users with the widest number of features that a non-smartphone handset is able to deliver. It comes with a 3-inch WVGA touchscreen, 8 GB of built-in memory, as well as a 5-megapixel photo snapper. The device also sports Wi-Fi capabilities and includes the company's S-Class touch user interface, which is meant to leverage the mobile experience to new heights.

For the time being, AT&T hasn't announced any details on the possible launch of the device. More info will be available either when the carrier will officially unveil LG Arena, or when it will be spotted on the company's website. For what it's worth, the device does have what it takes to be successful, even if it is only a feature-phone.
