LG KE770: SHINE goes candybar?

Not sure if this may turn out to be the US version of the SHINE that LG is supposedly going to drop on us at CES this week (probably not, since the word on the street is that we'll be getting a slider), but these pics of a candybar-style SHINE have turned up. We don't know much else about the KE770 (like specs, pricing, availability, etc), but it's clear that LG is taking a page from Moto's playbook by creating a new design language for its handsets and then rolling it out across different form factors.
