Amazon will announce its own smartphone by June, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal. The device is expected to begin shipping a few months later in September. Amazon has reportedly been showcasing early prototypes to developers in San Francisco and Seattle in recent weeks. The Journal also corroborates previous reports that the upcoming phone will be capable of displaying 3D content without requiring users to wear special glasses

Amazon's device is said to incorporate retina-tracking technology "embedded in four front-facing cameras" to achieve a 3D, hologram-like effect.

Any photos of the prototype? This will probably be the phone that finally gets me off my iPhone. Though, the 3D stuff just sounds like a pricey feature I won't want nor need.

Will this be carrier subsidized? Can I get it unlocked? Will keep tabs on this as I look for a new phone in the coming months.
