Palm's next PDA to run Windows Mobile 5
Palm has decided to run its next generation of PDAs on Windows Mobile 5, after having failed to buy back its own former software division, PalmSource. According to Business Week, "The sale of PalmSource, the software arm spun out of the former Palm Computer in 2002, will also affect the future of Palm OS. PalmSource had been struggling both to find more customers and to get its products, particularly a simpler operating system for cell phones, to market.Earlier this year, it sold its share of the Palm trademarks back to the hardware arm and put itself up for sale."
