The No. 3 U.S. wireless provider plans to sell phones such as the "Q" and the SLVR from Motorola, Len Lauer told investors in the company's quarterly earnings call. Some analysts attributed Sprint's disappointing quarterly growth to the fact that it did not sell phones from the Razr lineup."</i><br /><br />Not much to note here other than Verizon's exclusive lock on the Motorola Q looks like about a six month window. This is exciting to see for the Windows Mobile platform because it means another big carrier will be promoting this phone to their customers, and that means more Windows Mobile users, and potential Smartphone Thoughts readers. ;-)

Cool. Sprint and Bell should have models out before long. Then it's just a little while longer and we should see GSM versions of the Q too. :D
