Go Microsoft, Go Palm!

Microsoft continues to crush rivals

It's unbelievable how Microsoft continues to just win practically every category. This deal will be successful for Microsoft because ultimately they will buy Palm down the road because Palm won't be able to survive on it's own for very long.

Palm stumbling

Palm has been stumbling in recent years. It's a shame to see a company rest on their laurels and falter. Hopefully this will spur more Linux phones

compatible -- or even supported,
