We just took delivery of AT&T’s brand new Aria from HTC, and we have to say, we’re kind of tickled — with the hardware, anyway. It’s hard not to smile at the HD Mini-esque design elements, including the faux screws on back, the wild yellow interior, and… well, just the overall mini-ness of it. Seriously, this is a tiny phone; that means that eschewing WVGA in favor of HVGA isn’t an issue, but it also means that effectively using the on-screen keyboard could be. On that note, the jury’s still out on whether this phone is any good for day-to-day use — and whether it has any chops as a legit Android device — but stay tuned for our review coming up!
