As we reported yesterday, AT&T is expected to launch the Sony Ericsson C905a on July 19th. The handset managed to catch the attention of the paparazzi who managed to get a few shots off before the phone had to rush off to AT&T stores. The handset has already been out in Europe, and now catching the attention of U.S. cellphone buyers is the device's 8.1MP camera with Xenon flash, AF and video capture. The bad news is that it appears that AT&T has crippled the C905a by removing the Wi-Fi radio and support for Exchange. Who does AT&T think they are? (We bet you can answer that). The handset offers on-device image editing, FM radio and a scratch-resistant display made of mineral glass. There also will be M2 support up to 16GB, so you should be able to take advantage of the high-end shooter to take and save a ton of pictures. We gave you the pricing yesterday, but just in case you didn't commit it to memory, after rebate it will cost $179.99 with a two year contract.
