Nothing like a mysterious new Android smartphone to cheer up Labor Day, and today’s fresh faced young marvel is the LG Etna.  Caught on camera last week by German site Chip Online, the Etna was caught at a Vodafone stand and packs a 3-inch touchscreen and full QWERTY keyboard.

There’s also a 5-megapixel camera, Bluetooth and USB connectivity, but beyond that the Etna is a mystery.  We’d be very surprised should it turn out not to have WiFi b/g, 3G HSPA and GPS, and we don’t think a digital compass and accelerometer are too much to ask either.

Of course, this could well be the LG GW620, tipped back in July, but since that rumor lacked an image it’s difficult to conclusively tie the two together.  No word from either LG or Vodafone as to specific release dates, pricing or anything else, so it’s a case of wait and see.
