Ok, so i tried to figure out a funny little title for this entry, trying to pull the two companies together, like Palm shakes Hand(spring) or Palm puts finger on Hand(spring). you know, something like that, but funny. Anyways, I was blogsurfing this morning, getting my local dose of Krueger, Renk, Josiah, Holton, and Huffine and I got sidetracked somewhere and ran across this article. It seems as though Palm will be (or have already) purchasing Handspring, in attempt to take all the bad parts from Palm Pilots and integrate them with the bad parts of Handspring... err something like that im sure. anywhoo, the article is dated June 04... so who knows, this might have already happened, and I might be preaching to the choir. If anyone knows anything more about this, I'd still like to know. I apparently don't get out enough.

I mean, Palm & Handspring, in my opinion, have technically BETTER products than any of the CE devices out there, if they'd just get their ass in gear and crank out some new comporable products! All you've gotta do is provide equivalent functionality to the CE devices, along with the usual Handspring module goodies, and damn you're good to go.
