The voice, the man, the... machine. That's George Hoffman for you. According to people who have worked with him (including my husband) he is one of the brightest Be, Inc. engineers ever. These days, George works at
PalmSource, Inc. as the Director of Applications and Services. In his free time he sings with an (a cappella) vocal band of 4,
Hookslide (check out their .wmv promo video clip)! In this interview we talk about PalmOS 6, aka Cobalt. We discuss the architecture of the OS, its capabilities, its market targets and more. Screenshots of Cobalt are included.
I've been using a Treo 600 for about 2 months now, and it seems PalmSource is addressing essentially all of the problems I've been having with OS 5. Real multi-tasking and multimedia would be a huge improvement, and the BeOS roots are always fun.
I just hope they can get some hardware out soon.
