AT&T Wireless made headway this week on the wireless data front with several announcements from partners. Sony Ericsson announced a strategic alliance with AT&T Wireless to support the carrier's roll-out of EDGE services in the United States. Sony Ericsson also announced its dual-band GC82 EDGE PC Card for 850/1900 MHz GSM networks. The card, which provides high-speed data for laptop PCs, will be jointly marketed and distributed by both companies. In a separate development, Palm has started selling its Tungsten W handheld with AT&T Wireless GPRS service. AT&T Wireless initially will not sell the device in its stores, relying instead on Palm's established sales channels.
