The handset is the first from LG's line-up to use a next-generation keypad with what the company calls Fastap Press-to-Experience keys.

Music and photos or videos captured by the 1.3-megapixel camera can be stored on microSD cards up to 8GB in size.

The LG Swift is available in red or blue, priced at $50 at Alltel Wireless after an online discount, $50 mail-in rebate and on a two-year contract.
