We’ve seen leaked photos and specs and even saw it appear on Samsung’s official website, but what we haven’t had is official confirmation from AT&T that the Samsung Solstice was in fact coming.

Today, AT&T and Samsung have come forth to let us know that their low cost Solstice touchscreen is, in fact, hitting North American shelves on August 2nd. Official specs include a TouchWiz UI, Facebook, Myspace and other social networking software preinstalled. In terms of hardware, we’re looking at a 2MP camera and a microSD slot with 16GB of expandable storage.

The price stays the same as previously though at $99 with a 2-year contract.
