Seems a natural move to me. It's not only one Palm device switching
to Windows. It's the sucessor of the most important device from the
last Palm OS vendor switching to Windows. And don't forget that
PalmSource was bougth by a browser maker company. Too bad, seems time
to say good bye to Palm OS.
I don't care that much what OS a PDA runs. The showstopper for
Microsoft PDAs is that they are fairly useless without a Windows PC. It
is the Windows PC that restricts everyones freedom - whether user or
programmer. PalmOS isn't open source, but it is an open spec allowing
emulators and simulators, and the ability to sync with software other
than Microsoft.
