Palm In Trouble?
MarketWatch elaborates on a WSJ article that Palm is potentially up for sale, hurt by the competition. Recall that the PalmOS was once the most widely used platform for mobile devices. That's ceased to be true for a few years. I'm not sure, but I think Windows Mobile took over that status. And then there's Apple's imminent iPhone, not to mention a few Linux phones popping up. Symbian still commands a bit of presence in the market. So yeah, competition.
Nokia is being touted as a possible buyer. I have to say I hope it's Nokia; I have a lot of respect for what they are doing and the fact that they haven't ignored VoIP. As a Palm Treo owner who has increasingly grown to dislike my choice, I feel Nokia will treat Palm the best. This purely my own biased opinion.
