PalmSource to unveil smart-phone software | |
|
||
| Time: 18:45 EST/23:45 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

PalmSource will go after the emerging smart-phone market with its latest operating system, looking to grow beyond its core handheld business. As expected, the market-share leader in handheld operating systems plans to announce on Tuesday the Cobalt 6.1, its first product specifically aimed at smart phones, at a developer conference in Munich. Last week, the company disappointed Wall Street with a cloudy quarterly outlook, citing uncertainty because of the withdrawal of Sony, a significant licensee, from the handheld field in all markets except in Japan. To assuage concerns about its future, the company is targeting the smart-phone market. Cobalt, previously code-named Sahara, has been in development for about a year. Among its features are telephony capabilities, a native e-mail application, a Web browser and integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless features. It also adds improved security features and enhanced capacity to open several programs simultaneously. | ||

the pda is dead. the future is in very smart phones.
i am currently using the treo 600. it is a nearly perfect device. it needs to be a little smaller with bluetooth, but it can otherwise do everything that any normal human might want to use a pda and phone for. specialty pocket devices will persist for some time but not long. everyone needs a cell phone and the future is convergence. sony was smart to get out of the pda market. palmsource is wise to push a smartphone os. ms still has a ways to go in this market. pocket pc is still too robust to run efficiently on these devices. |
