In this blog I'll post my thoughts and recent developments in portable devices, PDA's and phones, running 'Smart Phone' operating systems such as Palm, Windows Mobile,and Blackberry RIM. Also we'll discuss the controversial new I-Phone, the mythical G-Phone, J2ME, and other topics in the wireless world! Stay tuned.
It seems that rumors of the death venerable Palm OS are greatly exaggerated! The original PDA OS has endured competition from Windows CE/PC/Mobile as well as Blackberry and even endured the perfect storm of hype, the I-Phone, to evolve into the OS for the lean and low cost Palm Centro For as low as $99. and a huge archive of Palm OS apps available, this is could be the everyman's I-Phone.
As some of you may already know, Palm has recently shown off its new next generation OS which will be based on Linux 2.6. I've already down loaded the SDK, so at some point in the future I'll give my thoughts on that. The new 'Palm Access' OS will still support classic Palm 68k asm applications as well as J2ME support built in. The linux ALP toolkit will also be supported to build truly native linux applications.See news at Palm Info Center
