AT&T today announced that it will offer the HP Veer 4G starting on May 15. The Veer is the smallest webOS smartphone from HP (Palm) to date, touted as being the size of a credit card and no thicker than a deck of cards.

The price will be $99 with two-year contract.

Supposedly it won't work with Sprint 'cuz the CMDA radio or whatever is too big to fit inside. It had to be a GSM phone, which limits the carriers to AT&T or T-mobile. Seeing as how T-Mobile will BE AT&T in a year, it's a no-brainer.
I'm sure the P...

It may look the same in photos, but in person, it's a lot smaller.
