My old housemate worked for palm, he has a foleo, he says the new OS is cool, but said little else. It apparently exists, that's all i know. He said that there are investors with enough cash to float palm for another year or two, when they expect to be profitable, so all their failure so far might not be an issue if they keep on life support until something interesting happens... Though really, i hope what's coming is better than the centro or the foleo (which i can say from first hand experience, really was as bad as people said)... A fun story he told me was an investor with millions of dollars invested in palm literally yelling at a board meeting "What the F**K is this!? This is not innovation!" While holding up a two year old treo and a nearly identical new model... Something i always wished would happen at palm - i was really happy to hear that story. So maybe, maybe it will come out, but honestly i have NO faith in palm's survival. HTC with android will PWN, really. -Taylor
