Palm's MyPalm beta euthanized, joins Foleo in hell
After a rather protracted beta period that ran well over a year, Palm has opted to kill its MyPalm portal rather than seeing it through to a final release. Though Palm doesn't really give a hard and fast reason for the move (seriously, read their FAQ -- the answer to "Why is the MyPalm Beta ending?" actually made us dumber), it's safe to say that most Treo users weren't getting their essential support and accessory information from the service. It looks like Palm has a plan in place to transition most of MyPalm's features out to other areas of their site, so we wouldn't sweat it too much.[Via Palm Infocenter]
Palm adds "MyPalm" portal
Owning a smartphone -- regardless of the manufacturer, carrier, or platform -- can be a terribly trying experience, particularly for the uninitiated. Juggling firmware updates and new software downloads while simultaneously looking up how to pair your headset, solve a sync issue, and figure out why the thing's crashing can drive even experienced owners to the edge of insanity (we speak from personal experience here). Palm's looking to take a little bit of that edge off with its new "MyPalm" site, a one-stop shop for learning about the latest goodies for the Treo of your choice. Most every model from every carrier appears to be supported, serving up news alerts about your device, a software and accessory catalog, and a full range of support features, among other things. If that newfangled 755p has you a bit stymied, check 'er out.[Thanks, Abdul]
