We told you about the LG Chocolate 3 (VX8560), but since then, a pricing scale and release date have since surfaced. To recap quickly, the 3rd edition of LG’s high selling Chocolate will be wrapped in a clamshell form factor, unlike the previous two iterations which were candybar-styled. The LG Chocolate 3 will have 1GB of internal memory, with up to 8GB of additional space through microSD cards. The phone’s external display is 1.76-inch (176×220) and the internal display is 2.2-inch with a QVGA resolution. Other features include a 2-megapixel camera, 3.5mm headphone jack, stereo speakers, Bluetooth (with stereo support). Finally, the Chocolate 3 will have an FM transmitter, so you can listen to your music on any FM radio.

The price is expected to be $129 after $50 rebate with a 2-year contact, $199 after $50 rebate with a 1-year contract, and $299 at full retail price. The LG Chocolate 3 will drop on July 14th and will be available exclusively for Verizon.
