AT&T Wireless to "support" but not sell the Voq

voq

Not that you can put too much stock in these sorts of things, but there's a rumor that AT&T Wireless is backing away from plans to carry Sierra Wireless' new Voq Professional Phone, which runs on Microsoft's Smartphone OS., saying that it'll be supported on their network, but not sold by them. We're guessing that Sierra Wireless and AT&T's first date didn't quite pan out—did Sierra not pay for dinner or open the door for them on the way out? The big question now is what AT&T means by "support"; we're assuming it means they're just talking the kind of suppoer where you can slap your SIM in and you'll be able to make calls (which you can do with any unlocked GSM phone, really), but no one knows.
