I am one of those remaining BeOS addicts. I love the BeOS' responsiveness, its short boot-up/shutdown times and its, well, overall feel. But no one can deny the fact: BeOS 5.0.x PE is getting old. Very old, with a kernel build-time of around May 2000.

Not quite... They are accessing the tech for sure. And if the market "oportunity" appears they will jump on the "rogues"... and they will have 2 choices... Stop... work for Palm... (the 3 choice isn't)...
They have what they wanted. The engeneers...
The rest is worthless for them as it is, and as time pass, less value it has (for them at least).
Now, if they opened a "BeOS depot"... and cather the current userbase (whatever small it is in term of the global market)... Then the platform would have a shot in the long run (as it is, openBeOS will be i presume the way to go as it isn't tainted).
In the end, time will tell
