Umm I am not sure... I would guess the company that makes Zeta (this is an unreliable guess). But why did you bring that up? I can't for the life of me understand why you brought that up
Because PalmSource owned the rights to BeOS (and presumably Access still owns them) and Magnussoft may or may not have the appropriate rights to distribute modified version of BeOS.
Anyway, I think its pretty clear from this deal that Palm has no interest in ALP. My guess is that Access/Palmsource has no interest in improving Garnet anymore and Palm wants to keep nursing it along until they can migrate their customer base to something else.
thanks for the informative reply. That's news to me.
Anyhow, I hope that a linux handheld comes along someday. I mean other than what's already available. I really liked my zire 72. So I guess it's not a terrible thing if Palm continues to milk garnet.
Now if only I could get my hands on a new PDA that isn't a phone...
