Just like we predicted when its press shots were leaked, the phone is almost here. AT&T has officially announced that the HP Veer 4G will be making its way over to their network very soon.

The HP Veer will be the first HP smartphone to run webOS 3, and will also be HP’s smallest phone to date. The phone will feature a slide-out portrait QWERTY keyboard, a 2.57″ touchscreen, an 800MHz processor, 8GB of internal storage, a 5 megapixel rear camera, Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS, and HP Touchstone compatibility.
