It’s rare that we see Sharp’s Aquos phones here within the US, but one model, not less than, may be making the long journey stateside. A handset dubbed the CMDA SHI12 just cleared the FCC, and after comparing the drawings within the report back to shots of devices already that you can buy, we’re pretty sure it is the IS12SH that Sharp announced for Japan a couple of weeks back. Though the report is usually terse with regards to specs, it does confirm that the telephone has an 8 megapixel 3D rear-facing camera, Bluetooth, FeliCa , GPS, and tri-band CDMA (B0 / B3 / B6) connectivity. And though it is not within the filing, if that is indeed the IS12SH, then it also has a 4.2-inch qHD display and runs Android 2.3 (or so we’d hope, anyway). After all, an FCC filing doesn’t suggest this could ever reach a carrier or go on sale within the US, period. But in case it does, don’t say we didn’t provide you with a heads up.
