AT&T's CEO Ralph de la Vega took the stage at CES today and mentioned a few important things. He officially introduced the Motorola Atrix 4G and the HTC Inspire 4G but also briefly mentioned that a 4G (LTE-capable) iPhone would be hitting their network next year (2012). That shatters all of the rumours about one launching this year but there could always be one with HSPA+ connectivity when Apple announces the next iPhone in June. Another highlight is that AT&T plans to launch twenty new 4G devices this year and this includes modems, mobile hotspots and, of course, phones. Check out what else BGR picked up below.
Update: According to Engadget, AT&T has officially mentioned that they are planning to launch twelve Android devices this year. We just heard about three of them, so that's only a quarter of what they have in store for us.

- AT&T is accelerating its LTE deployment — it will launch LTE later this year and complete its deployment by 2013
- HSPA+ provides “4G speeds,” and is already widely deployed
- 20 new 4G devices will be introduced this year including modems, mobile hotspots and phones
- De la Vega said AT&T will launch a 4G LTE-compatible Apple iPhone next year
- Motorola ATRIX 4G launches this year: 4G LTE, Android OS, 1GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB of RAM, 1930 mAh battery, 10.9mm thick, HTML5 support
- The ATRIX 4G has a laptop dock that basically turns the phone into a full-sized laptop — very weird, very intriguing — and a home entertainment dock
- HTC Inspire 4G: new HTC Sense UI, HTCSense.com support, 4.3-inch display, Android 2.2 OS, physical location awareness (phone rings louder when in a pocket or bag, then quiets when taken out)
