A Fortune Magazine article looks at hand-held computing's most beleaguered major player and wonders whether it wouldn't be better off hitching its wagon to Google's coat-tails and adopting Android. After shunting aside its own, old-and-creaky OS in favor of Microsoft's it's been hanging its hopes on a long-awaited new Linux-based OS. Android may be Palm's best bet to avoid stemming its inexorable slide into irrelevance.

i think it was part of the palmsource package that access bought.
but its not showing up on access's products page so im guessing they have given it the last rites.
instead they are pushing garnet and something called the access linux platform. the latter seems able to use garnet vm for backwards compatiblity with garnet (the lack of said compatiblity was what killed cobalt iirc).

Anyone remembers what eventually happened to Cobalt, the once much-anticipated PalmOS evolution?
