DALLAS, July 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AT&T* and Samsung Telecommunications
America (Samsung Mobile), the No. 1 mobile phone provider in the U.S., today
announced the Aug. 2 availability of the Samsung Solstice(TM), a compact and
fun touch screen phone that provides users with an instant connection to
social networking, messaging and multimedia features. The Solstice is a dream
come true to all users with its easy-to-use, polished design.

The lightweight and sleek Samsung Solstice has a full 3.0 touch screen, with a
virtual, landscape QWERTY keyboard, and features Samsung's unique TouchWiz(TM)
user interface, which includes one-touch access to frequently used
applications and social networks through new widgets for Facebook, MySpace and
Yahoo! oneSearch(TM). The Solstice also provides customers with access to
mobile broadband from the nation's fastest 3G network, AT&T Navigator and AT&T
Mobile Music with Napster Mobile(R) and eMusic(TM) Mobile.

"AT&T customers will be thrilled with the Samsung Solstice's improved full
touch functionality," said Mike Woodward, vice president, Mobile Phone
Portfolio, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. "The widget bar functionality
makes this device an easy to use passport to customers' favorite
applications."

The Solstice features multiple messaging options such as Mobile Email, IM and
MMS and comes equipped with a 2.0 megapixel camera with camcorder, perfect for
capturing those spontaneous moments. Users experience a tactile response with
haptic feedback and know when they accurately press a virtual button. The full
QWERTY keyboard, with sensitivity adjustment, is easy-to-use with clear
letters, numbers and symbols.

Additionally, the Solstice includes an accelerometer that will automatically
detect motion and the orientation of the device allowing for the use of richer
applications and features, including autorotation of the display, motion
sensing games and photo scrolling by tilting the device.

With specially designed widgets to customize and personalize the way you use
your phone, Samsung's TouchWiz user interface allows for quick access to your
favorite features and social networking sites. By simply expanding the tray,
users can "drag-and-drop" widgets onto the phone's home screen for one touch
access to their favorite features.

"Samsung is proud to launch the new Samsung Solstice, the next handset in our
line-up of touch screen devices at AT&T," said Omar Khan, senior vice
president, Strategy and Product Management, Samsung Telecommunications
America. "The sleek, compact Solstice brings a rich web browsing and instant
access to your favorite social networking sites through widgets and Samsung's
innovative TouchWiz user experience."
