That successor to AT&T’s wildly popular LG Shine that we spied back in August has finally popped official today, becoming the Shine II (surprise, surprise). It’s a very evolutionary set — if you squint, you can’t see much difference from the original — but this might be a situation where it’s in AT&T’s best interest not to mess with success just as long as they don’t end up pulling a RAZR over the next several years. It’s got a 2 megapixel cam, a mirror-finish 2.2-inch LCD, GPS, 3.6Mbps HSDPA, and microSD expansion to 16GB; look for it on November 22 for $119.99 after rebate on contract. Perhaps more notably, the BlackBerry Curve 8520 has migrated from T-Mobile over to AT&T today with the same EDGE data and optical pad as its cousin; it’ll be hitting in the “coming weeks” for $99.99 after rebate. Of course, the Bold 9700 hits on the 22nd for a hundie more, so there’ll be some soul searching among AT&T-based BlackBerry lovers over the next few days, we suspect.
