So far, AT&T had been somewhat quiet on the Android platform front, but now we do know AT&T is planning on getting into the Android game as we meet the HTC Lancaster courtesy of engadget mobile.

The AT&T branded HTC Lancaster resembles the HTC Magic in its closed form; however when it slides open looks more like an HTC Touch Pro sporting QWERTY slider. There’s tri-band EDGE along with HSPA 850/1900 MHz, Bluetooth 2.0, 3 megapixel camera, AGPS, microSD slot and a unique HTC social messaging UI.

Apparently AT&T will hold exclusivity with the HTC Lancaster for 6 months and has a target release date of the 3rd of August, no word on pricing though.
