AT&T has confirmed that the LG Thrill 4G will arrive in stores this summer, though no specific date was provided. The carrier announced this, along with a suite of preloaded 3D content, at the 3D Summit in NYC.

The apps include YouTube 3D, plus 3D games like Let's Golf 2, Asphalt 6, and N.O.V.A. If users aren't satisfied with those options, they also get access to the Gameloft 3D store plus 3D movies from mSpot.

The LG Thrill has a dual-core 1GHz dual-channel RAM processor and two 5-megapixel stereoscopic 3D cameras on the back that can record 720p video in 3D and 1080p in 2D. There's a front-facing camera as well. It also promises to convert 2D content to 3D, though we'll have to wait and see how well that works. The 4.3-inch display doesn't require any glasses to view the 3D content. It ships with Android 2.2, and it supports AT&T's "4G" HSPA+ network. Other features include HDMI and DLNA compatibility, and Mobile Hotspot capability.
