Sharp SH8188U to arrive Stateside?

Sharp SH8188U to arrive Stateside?

It is very rare to see a smartphone or even a feature phone from Japan arrive in the US – normally, the phones from that part of the world tend to be exclusive, so we are pleasantly surprised to see the Sharp SH8188U being slated for a US release. This Android-powered smartphone will be powered by a 1GHz Snapdragon MSM8255 processor, sporting a WVGA display – although there is no word on its size. Needless to say, we have the specifications for the Asian version as it is already out, playing nice on the WCDMA 900 and 2100MHz bands, although with a spanking new radio, it will be suitable for 3G connectivity in North America.
