PalmOS is finished, from their lame LifeDrive product, to their inability to revamp PalmOS, to their disasterous split/remerger it's clear this is a company headed the way of the company whose intellectual property they purchased, Be Inc. Call it the curse of Gassee. Their only successful product, Treo, will probably end up being sold by the same fools in management that decided the split was a good idea.
If they're lucky some larger company like apple will see fit to buy them when they're cheap and desperate, otherwise we'll see them in the downward spiral towards chapter 11 for the next few years. Such a sad demise for a company with so much history and promise.
