Cingular launched the LG CG225, an entry-level clamshell handset. The features are basic, but fairly well equipped for being a base model.

• Quad-band GSM
• VGA camera
• IM (AIM/Yahoo/MSN/ICQ)
• Speakerphone

Cingular is selling the CG225 for free with a 2-year service contract and $99 in instant savings. It’s available now.
