No StarCraft II LAN Support?

There's another new StarCraft II preview on Kotaku with round three of their hands-on impressions of Blizzard's upcoming RTS sequel, including discussion of the solo campaign and the new Battle.net. There's also a StarCraft II hands-on preview on IncGamers with their own thoughts on seeing the game first hand, and there is also a StarCraft II interview on IncGamers where Rob Pardo, Chris Sigaty, and Dustin Browder answer questions about the game, the new Battle.net, serving the map-designer community, the solo campaign, and more. They get contradictory answers to a question about multiplayer support for LAN play, but the question about console support was less equivocal, as Pardo puts the chances of a console edition of StarCraft II at "zero percent." As for multiplayer on a LAN, both Dustin and Sigaty said they were still discussing it, but "we don't have any plans to support LAN," is what Pardo had to say about LAN play. "We will not support it." Also, Joystiq has a clip showing seven minutes of StarCraft II multiplayer play and yet another hands-on StarCraft II multiplayer preview.
