Verizon: Can You Hear Me Now

http://gigaom.com/2009/07/13/verizon-to-mobile-developers-can-you-hear-me-now/

Question that I can't seem to get answered - is Verizon going to somehow disable the ability to download and install software from anywhere but the Verizon App Store? I typically get the apps for my WinMo phone directly from the developer's site. Verizon can stick an app store icon in my Programs menu if it wants, but I want to continue to be able to open up PocketIE, type "windows mobile freeware" into Google, click the link to a developer's website, download a cab file, and install it. If I can no longer do that, then there's no point in staying on WinMo anymore.
