Four days before the iPhone 4 goes on sale on June 24th, AT&T will start stocking the HTC Aria, which sounds like its first Android smartphone that a serious smartphone fan might take seriously. For $130 (on two-year contract after rebate) it’s got decent specs, a trackball, and what AT&T describes as an especially pocket-friendly size. It also runs Android 2.1 with HTC’s Sense interface (Google’s own Nexus One remains the only Android 2.2 phone, but please don’t call that fragmentation).

Looks interesting for those of us who can’t use Sprint or T-Mobile for coverage reasons and are happy with AT&T (and unsure whether Verizon has fixed their coverage problem in this area).
After the mob scenes die down in the “nearby” (45 minutes) AT&T store, I’ll take looks at the Aria and iPhone 4. But I’m still waiting for Windows Phone 7 to appear.
