AT&T officially announces LG Trax

We saw this coming… The ultra-thin LG Trax is a mid-range music phone which unlike similar devices offers much more than simple music playback. For instance, there’s the stereo Bluetooth support, as well as the 3G/HSDPA radio that will allow users to quickly download tunes from AT&T (NYSE: T) Mobile Music service — Napster and/or eMusic. In addition, the LG Trax is also MobiTV and XM Radio Mobile-capable device, plus it will support other AT&T services such as AT&T’s Cellular Video (CV) and the recently launched AT&T Video Share. It has a standard 1.3 camera, along with the accompanying built-in software, which allows modification of the photos — rotate, resize and crop — directly from the handset. And of course, there’s the good ol’ microSD expansion slot that can boost Trax’ storage capacity up to 4GB.

If this sounds like your tune, you should visit one of the select AT&T retail stores or AT&T’s site starting from August 14, when Trax will start retailing for $129.99 after a mail-in-rebate and a two-year service agreement.
