AT&T finally gets into Android game with HTC Aria

AT&T announced on its Facebook page its first Android 2.1 offering which it would start offering on June 20th for $129.

Until now, AT&T has only carried the Motorola Backflip, a lackluster Android 1.5 device that doesn’t seem to have gathered much of a following.  However, four days before you will be able to get your hands on an iPhone 4 on its network, AT&T is putting out the HTC Aria, a very small but capable Android 2.1 device demonstrated below by AT&T (T) Project Manager  Dante Martin.

The Aria has a 600MHz Qualcomm (QCOM) MSM processor with 512MB ROM and 384MB RAM.  The device itself is a very small 4.1” x 2.3” x .46″ and weighs 3.8 ounces (a full oz. less than the 4.8oz. iPhone!).  The display is  3.2 inch HVGA (320×480) and it has a 5-megapixel camera.
