The Sierra Wireless Voq Professional phone, a Microsoft Windows Mobile-based handset (so it features Pocket Internet Explorer, Outlook, Windows Media player etc), is to go on sale in the next few months. At first it looks like a traditional, if rather large, phone. Yet flip open its number pad and there's a Qwerty keyboard. Users are unlikely to smash the 30 words a minute barrier, but the domed keypads proved sturdy enough to halve the time it took this novice to bash out an email.
The Voq's other trump card is its My Voq software, which fires up each time the keypad is opened. As soon as the user types a couple of keystrokes, the system offers access to a range of contacts, applications and even websites sharing those letters. Despite this, the phone is too chunky for the consumer market. However, the keypad, software and compatibility with both virtual private networks and enterprise email systems such as Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Notes should make it a hit with business users.

Hence the title "Professional Phone" not for general consumer use!
