Taking on a very similar form factor to the Highlight, AT&T officially announced the impending arrival of the Samsung Solstice. It’s for the most part your garden variety touchscreen phone with a 3-inch display, Samsung’s TouchWiz UI and haptic feedback. Unlike the Highlight, though, the Solstice includes 3G connectivity but lacks a lower rez 2 megapixel camera. Memory comes by way of microSD card slot and I’d expect the usual other amenties such as a music player and Bluetooth.

You can expect the Solstice at AT&T on August 2nd for $100.
