Palm has been on the ropes since its brilliant founders sold it to 3com a few years ago. What was 3com thinking? You can not get rid of the innovaters when the market is still evolving. As soon as the founders left, Palm sat idle. Zero innovation. They are getting killed. A small but recent sign of desparation is that Palm is now selling its mailing list. I know this since I use coded email addresses. I contacted Palm, and the snotty person in legal that I spoke with said they had every right to do this, and I should read their privacy agreement for more info. I used to be one of the biggest Palm supporters around. I used to champion them against the evil empire from Microsoft. But guess what-- Microsoft actually understands privacy. I now look forward to the death of palm. Long live Pocket PC, and Microsoft.
