Palm Still Milking Garnet OS
Sorry to druge back up and old post, but I just wanted to comment on this. Its now 2009 and Palm is still milking the Garnet OS in the Centro line. It really was the only way to get to a $100 price point for them and still make some money off the phones.
ALP is still in development with virtually no one comitting to it.
Palm, Inc. went ahead and wrote their own new operating system that hasn't yet launched with the Palm PRE.
Meanwhile, Google has managed to write their own open-source phone OS, Android, and get it rolled out on the T-mobile G1 with supposedly a half dozen or so more phones coming out this year.
I just thought it quite interesting to look back at what has happened and hasn't happened in the past 4 years almost.
