Default Sprint's Motorola Q9c Discontinued?

http://www.everythingq.com/forum/mo...-q9c-23284.html

"The Everything Q forums have been buzzing for the last two days about the disappearance of both the Motorola Q and the Motorola Q9C from the Sprint web site. Some forum members have speculated that both phones are just out of stock or have been pulled to apply a WM 6.1 refresh. However more than a few forum regulars have chimed in to say that their local stores are telling them that the Sprint Motorola Q and Q9C are discontinued. Additionally a couple members of the forum have gotten the same 'discontinued' explanation upon calling into Sprint’s customer service desk. So as of now the Sprint Motorola Q and Q9C are not on their web site. Whether they re-appear or are replaced with another model is anyone’s guess. Until then at least we can look forward to the Treo 800W which seems ready to launch on Sprint July 13."



Obviously the phone is an important enough piece of Sprint's and Motorola's profile that it was the first of Motorola's Windows Mobile Standard devices to receive an official Window Mobile 6.1 update. It would just seem silly to discontinue the handset after doing this. I wouldn't be too surprised if this happened though; with the recent rumors of Motorola pulling the Q9h from AT&T sometime soon, and now Sprints Smartphones pulling a vanishing act, it could just mean that Motorola is stepping back from the Windows Mobile business. Hopefully someone from Motorola clears this up soon.
