any help would be really appreciated, thanks!

yeah i have no idea what it's formal name is (google didn't work for me either). i'm assuming it's release has been fairly recent.
i found information on it :)"LG, Korea announced the release of another clamshell device aimed at users in the country, namely the LG SV800 / KH8000 / LH8000. Also known as LG Lollipop, the handset is obviously targeted at young mobile users, and it comes in three color versions: Cutie Pink, Aqua Blue and “Boyish Titanium”. This fashionable clamshell phone features 220 LEDs on the outside that can display pixel animations. Additionally the Lollipop phone can light-up in 35 color shades that can be associated with specific callers. Another highlight of the new LG phone is the self portrait camera with software that helps to make a good photo of you.
Here are the handset’s main specs:
• CDMA and HSDPA connectivity
• 2.8 inch TFT internal display with 240 x 400 pixels
• Media player
• 3MP camera
• 1.3MP secondary camera (for video calls)
• MicroSD card support
• 106.5 x 51.5 x 13.4 mm
• 92g
The LG Lollipop is expected to become available in South Korea starting this month, and it should be added to the offerings of all major carriers, including SK Telecom, KTF and LG Telecom. There are no details on a possible availability of the new handset on other markets at the moment."
so yeah, it just came out in korea .. i don't think it's gonna be available overseas for a while.
i personally think the ice cream looks better ;P the outside looks weird >__O
the inside looks NICE though. it would be perfect if the inside of the ice cream had a long screen like that!
anyway, some pictures~
I don't get it. They don't look like lollipops. Nor do the icecream ones look like icecream....
I have another one pic here!
If i'm not wrong it's the same lollipop phone ^^
Bigbang also has an ad with 'Big bang girls' who will debut soon
ps. just only the first half of the pic

so cutee! i have an ice cream now but i want this when the unlocked comes out around $200 which will probably be in forever
the external led is SO cute o_O and you can change it to 35colors! ><

I have to admit that they're going a bit to far with this whole "food" themed stuff..
And the most pathetic thing is that I want the phone *head desk* Seriously why do they keep throwing great design at me that aren't unlocked yet! What to do now? icecream 1? Wait for icecream 2 (hoping for a better quality phone) Or wait on this cutesy thing? Why is lg only bringing these out in Asia? They're cruel!
Just to torment us some more:
Those models are annoying! Why don't they just use bing bang all the time?

I agree that I wish the inside of the ice cream looked like this instead lol.
The buttons look nicer and the bigger screen is a definite step up from
the small ice cream screen.

on the contrary i think that the buttons look uglier than icecream. reminds me of american phones, ewww.
the LED thingy is bigger though.

I want to have this one. but i don't have money and I'll have to wait for this to be released in the Philippines LOL.
How much do you think will this lollipop phone cost?

Ice cream is made by LG. Lollipop is made by Cyon. They look similar, but there not
^ LG is the mother* (I guess in light of a better word) company of Cyon.
Cyon is just like a branch, the name of the LG korean branch.
Cyon makes lollipop and the ice cream. It's just that there's the Cyon's
in korea and the GSM versions with the LG logos on them.

I get it now, thank you!
The LED lights are way bigger but for some reason I don't think it's as cute. It doesn't have the whole chunky cutesy thing going on 
This is what I found on a site:
The Ice Cream phone is currently available only in South Korea, for a suggested retail price between 400,000 and 500,000 KRW, meaning about $400 - $500. No details about a future availability for other markets, but I guess Europe and America will also want to get some mobile ice cream.
We'll have to see if the unlocked version comes out fast.. I think we'll have to wait for quite a few months.. And then the prices won't be low..

I like it less than the Ice Cream 1 and more than the Ice Cream 2. But...lollipop? Kind of silly.

Have you guys seen this clip? Big Bang plays with the phones! Apparently you can customize all the lights (exterior LED and the lights at the tip of the flip)! It's pretty unique! We all know everybody LOVES customization!

Enjoy, Cr YT and the uploader.
Edit.
Notice that it's a CDMA phone, so it doesn't use a SIM card, which in unfortunate for almost everybody. The only way you could use it is in the situation where a company like SPRINT or VERIZON. I highly doubt they would pick up this phone in the near future. Sorry

thank you (and everyone else) for posting information.
i was hoping to get my brother to pick me one up when he goes to korea in may but i'm wondering if that is a wise decision. Since this phone works on CDMA would i be able to set it up with bell or telus no problem?
O M G
i see it in BROWN =o
I want it BADLY =[

Since this phone works on CDMA would i be able to set it up with bell or telus no problem?CDMA carriers in the U.S. require proprietary handsets that are linked to one carrier only and are not card-enabled. To upgrade a CDMA phone, the carrier must deactivate the old phone then activate the new one. The old phone becomes useless. (cr. wisegeek)
Although you CAN technically hack CDMA phones, it's a real challenge. Not only do you need to hack the phone, but you also have to get the phone freed from the original company (this will not happen unless you have a connection working at the company who is willing to bending policy for pals). So all-in-all...
Generally the answer is "no, CDMA phones work where they're sold." I usually just forget about getting the phone if it's CDMA.
This phone is really cute~
I like it I would get it 
I like it
I would get it
You can partially cusomise the led on the ice cream can't you?? I'ts just tiny.
OMG.
i seriously want tis phone.
esp after i saw vid where big bang did the customizations...
):makes me jealous.

So unless they come out with a GSM version in the future or make a variant of some sort with the LG badge thats the only way I could see it being able to use

yae!
i hope a GSM ver comes out!!
and sell in in other countries outside Kor!!
Just lik Ice Cream 1~ it is alr out in my country singapore... though ice cream 2 no where to be seen

Its all programmed within the phone rather then in a simcard itself. Id say probably most phones in Korea work this way since you don't see a lot of them being hackable to be able to use outside of Korea . I have heard that there are some providers that use GSM though.

It wont be sold outside of Korea since its CDMA , therefore not useable outside of Korea.
the inside is uglier (like the keypad) than the Ice Cream, but omgosh the 35 diff. colors is so tempting!!! but they don't have it in white!
I just got the Ice Cream 1 like a month ago... and this phone came out.
At first I was like "Eh, whatever" but after watching Big Bang play with them, I want one.
I like how the custom LED is a lot bigger. I'll be waiting for this unlocked.

I think I mostly like the fact that the outside can display animations and can light up in 35 different shades.
I wanted the Ice Cream forever...but now, I kind of have my eyes set on this
