We’ve already reported that AT&T wants a piece of LG’s “Shiny” and “Prady” action (oh my God, this sounds horrible). Now, according to Engadget’s tipster, it seems that the first LG Shine devices are appearing in the carrier’s stores around the country. And while we can’t confirm anything at this stage — there’s no official word from AT&T — it kinda makes sense to push them before Thanksgiving, and prepare for the “record-breaking” Christmas season. Finally let’s talk about price. If you happen to like the LG Shine, you’ll have to pay $150 (after $50 rebate) and sign for a two-year agreement — or you can browse through eBay, buy an unlocked device and take it from there… [Via: Engadget Mobile ] ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:AT&T to add LG Shine, Prada phones soonApple iPhone will launch only in Apple Stores and select AT&T storesShine Folder - a clamshell ShineLG Shine Gold editionAT&T Rushing to Re-brand Cingular as AT&T in Anticipation of Apple iPhone Launch
