US Wireless carrier Verizon seems to be releasing a different color version of the LG Chocolate every holiday, or maybe it's just my imagination.

But it's a fact that their customers will be getting a Chocolate with a new look yet again, this time just before Valentine's Day.

At first, the stylish mobile phone was available in black and then out came a white version, released right before Thanksgiving followed by the Mint and Cherry Chocolates that popped out just in time for Christmas.

Following this pattern, it should be very obvious that the LG Chocolate they are releasing now is pink.

The only thing that's not entirely clear is why they would name it Strawberry, considering the fact that the phone is pink not red. Has anyone seen any pink strawberries lately?

Anyway, the mobile phone brings the same features as its other colorful versions including Bluetooth for connectivity, a media player with support for MP3, AAC and MPEG4 files, a 1.3 megapixel camera with flash and video recording capabilities and support for Verizon's V CAST and V CAST music services.

It also comes equipped with a MicroSD card slot for memory expansion that supports up to 2GB cards, space that should be enough for most people, allowing them to store a decent number of files.

The tri-band mobile phone painted pink will be available as a web exclusive starting with the 4th of February (so only a few days away). People who are interested in getting themselves an even sweeter Chocolate can do so in exchange for $99 after rebate and a two-year contract.
