Default [Q] Non-Market Apps?

I've heard that the Atrix, Inspire 4G, and a few other newer phones aren't supporting installation of non-market downloaded apps. Has anyone heard if the TB will follow suit? Since there are some unboxings and reviews of it on youtube, I would figure someone would have checked already but I can't find anything on it.

at&t does to all android phones regardless so thats expected

Verizon hasnt yet so i doubt it
even so, just use ADB to sideload if it comes to it

from what I know its an ATT thing not an htc thing... they wouldn't allow nonmarket apps on the aria either... if I pick up the phone and go into development and it doesn't allow me to install non market apps I'll give it right back to them... not to steal anything but becuase sometimes newer isn't always better... sometimes older versions work better for me

They shouldn't be able to block you from installing anything, it's trash.

Any way to do this yet without the wonder machine?

yes, either root the phone or use htc sync if you hate adb
