| Palm goes to the darkside... Evidentially the new Palm Treo 700w will run a Windows based OS...makes you wonder if the Palm OS will die eventually. http://news.yahoo.com/s/sv/20051004/...NlYwMlJVRPUCUl

| I thought Palm was also coming out with a Linux based palm device as well. Maybe they are just riding the fence?

| Are palms still in much use? Considering their cost and specs I would rather have a iBook...now, if only they have a touch screen. |

| I still see a lot of them here and there...far more than I'd expect to see. BTW that particular model that's going to run Win is a phone one.

| I was gonna wait and see what the Treo 700 was going to be, i like the improvements (better keyboard, better display, Verizon's 3G network, Bluetooth improved) but Window's Mobile doesn't support sync with my Powerbook. And is prone to Virus infection and crashes regularly, i prefer the Palm OS to any other one. Fark You Palm i'll stick to my Tungsten E...

| This kills dead ANY credibility for Palm's OS. What a shame. So, if you're not into having a phone with PDA functions (coz not all of us want radiation induced tumors or God knows what over the coming decades), what are the options now? Windows or....? Zaurus? |

| I would like to see you stick that iBook in your pocket! I cant lice without my Treo. I havehad a long line of Palm devices and this one is the best yet! I will not buy a Windows OS Palm device though. Maybe a Linux one, but hopefully Palm will not go all Microsuck in their devices. |
