Motorola debuted the new device -- which combines a reverse QWERTY flip keyboard with a custom Android operating system supporting the company's social media-intensive MOTOBLUR technology -- back in January, but AT&T will be the first carrier to sell it stateside. AT&T will sell the device for $199.99 (there's also a $100 mail-in rebate) with a required two-year contract and smartphone data plan at retail locations and online.

The union of AT&T and Android became official earlier this year when we learned that AT&T would begin selling at least five Android phones in 2010. AT&T has been slow to sell phones powered by Google's operating system, which means come March it will be the final major U.S. carrier to embrace Android.
