Yeah, my bad.  I meant Palm's webOS.

Going to? No. already is.

 

PalmOS is dead. Unfortunate, because it was a great platform, but that's
the way it goes...

Yes, there is still support available, but it is dead.

Bummer! Guess the old PalmOS is going to become "abandon ware" :-(

They'll use webOS, not PalmOS. IMHO.

When there was talk about Palm going up for sale a few weeks ago (G4
TV), they were predicting the buyer would ultimately be making the
purchase to use Palm's O/S to try and compete with other high-end cell
phones.

There are rumors that HP may use PalmOS for tablets.  Again, that would
seem like a risky proposition to me.

Ok. Rephrase the question - do you think HP will do anything with the
new version of the OS that Palm was developing or do you think they will
go 100% with some other O/S for their PDA/Phones?

No.

 

You'll see about as much of Palm in 5 years from HP as you see Compaq
from HP.

According to a story in my inbox this  morning, HP is buying Palm for
$1.2 Billion (story here -- 
http://lm.pcworld.com/t/991080/39789109/76510/0/) Just wondering if you
guys think this will "save" Palm and help them regain market share?
