LG SV300 Wine is the name of the latest LG-built mobile phone rumored to reach the shores of Canada. The handset should be released on October 3 by Bell Mobility, the second largest Canadian carrier. 

According to Mobile in Canada, customers from across the North American country will be able to buy the Wine for 79.95 CAD (75 USD) if a three-year contract agreement is selected, or for 279.95 CAD (262 USD) free of any contract. For this kind of money, you will get a nice-looking clamshell that has a set of pretty good features (although nothing to go upper than the middle range of capabilities).

Available in South Korea (LG's home country) since last year, the SV300 brings the following: a 2.2 inch TFT internal display with 240 x 320 pixels and 260K colors, a smaller external screen, a 1.3 Megapixel camera with video recording, SMS and MMS capabilities, Bluetooth, Music player and 45MB of internal memory that don't seem to be expandable. Of course, the clamshell also comes with a range of basic features that almost any phone nowadays has, including alarm clock, world clock, calendar, calculator, notebook and so on.

The Wine phone weighs 93 grams and, when not open, it measures 99 x 49 x 16.2 millimeters. Its battery is an 830 mAh one, said to be capable of providing up to 3 hours of talk-time or up to 200 hours of stand-by time.

After the SV300 Wine gets to be released by Bell, the Canadian carrier will have no less than six handsets built by the South Korean company, including: the touchscreen slider LG Vantage 830, LG Shine and LG 385 (both of which are flip phones), LG Chocolate and the QWERTY-equipped LG Rumour (Bell's version of LG Rumor, available in the US for some time now).
