  AT&T Offers Sweet Pricing on Red Handsets for Valentine's Day

    SAN ANTONIO, Jan. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- In time for Valentine's
Day gift-seekers or singles in love with the hottest wireless gadgets on
the market, AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T) today announced $99.99 promotional pricing
through Feb. 14, 2008, on three red feature-packed wireless devices -- the
Shine(TM) by LG, the BlackJack(TM) II by Samsung and the BlackBerry(R)
Curve 8310. All three devices are exclusive to AT&T.

    "Chocolates and flowers are standby gifts for Valentine's Day, but this
year we're spicing things up by offering terrific deals for those who want
to go with something different," said Andy Wilson, vice president of
National Marketing for AT&T's wireless unit. "These eye-catching red
devices are available at a great promotional price, and with unlimited
Mobile to Mobile calling and unlimited text messaging plans, it's easy and
affordable for consumers to stay connected with loved ones."

    The new red Shine by LG is a sliding form-factor device with a 2.2-inch
mirror LCD screen that comes pre-loaded with robust features such as AT&T
Video Share, Mobile Banking and AT&T Mobile Music, along with a
2.0-megapixel camera and Bluetooth(R) 2.0 capability.

    The BlackJack II by Samsung gives users access to multiple e-mail
accounts and offers over-the-air synchronization of contacts, a calendar
and task lists. It comes with a 2.0-megapixel camera, supports multimedia
applications -- including AT&T Video Share -- and also has built-in GPS
capabilities. The GPS capabilities allow customers to use location-based
applications and services, such as TeleNav(R) GPS Navigator(TM), which
provides turn-by-turn voice and on-screen directions with 3-D moving maps
and traffic alerts.

    The BlackBerry Curve combines e-mail and messaging capabilities with
premium phone and multimedia features, including a 2.0-megapixel camera and
AT&T Mobile Music capabilities. The device is Bluetooth 2.0-capable,
supports AT&T Push to Talk for walkie-talkie-like communications and comes
with built-in GPS capabilities.

    A wide range of voice and data plans are available for these devices.
The handsets and voice plans are available in AT&T retail stores and online
at http://www.att.com.

    Gift-givers on the hunt for wireless accessories for their sweethearts
may want to consider an AT&T Tone E-Card. Anyone with an AT&T wireless
phone can use a Tone E-Card, valued at $9.99 or $19.99. E-Cards can be
ordered online at http://www.att.com/tonecard. After the receiver gets an
e-mail message with the PIN code, he or she can shop for ringtones or
graphics at MEdia Mall and redeem the gift by entering the eight-digit code
in the Coupon/Tone Card Code field on the ringtone or graphic purchase
page.
