I'm confused; is the new OS made by ACCESS or is this an in-house effort by Palm ?

Win Mo almost killed the Treo range as it like all Win Mo devices was so unreliable it was not taken up by enterprise and lost out to RIM blackberry the 4yr old Palm OS is and was much more stable and user friendly, its just palm did not have enough faith in their own OS to keep plugging it and once they withdrew from Japan that was saying "we're giving up'

the Palm OS has many more fans than Win Mo or even the Mac OS.

Whoever took control of palm during the diversification era should be shot but then again apple came back from a similar brink.

I've always liked Palm, but it may be too late for them. Competing with Apple, Nokia, Microsoft and Google is a tall order indeed.

I'm rooting for Palm. I can't seem to get comfortable with any other OS since being a Palm owner for years.

Does it matter?

(No, it doesn't matter. Palm was great in its day but their time has passed.)
