Ed Colligan talks a bit about Palm OS 2.0 and the future of Palm
According to APC Magazine, Palm CEO Ed Colligan talked about the next Palm OS (aka Nova). Palm OS 2.0 will be based on the internet and web-based applications and like Apple, Palm will create the OS and the device. Colligan also stated that not all of these new devices will be smartphones so we may still see a stand-alone PDA, an internet tablet, or even a resurrected Foleo. It seems these new "prosumer" devices will fit in between the Treo and Centro line.
It also doesn't sound like the good old Palm OS we all know and have loved/hated may continue on into infinity as their agreement with ACCESS lets them use and even modify the code. I think we will continued to see low-cost Centro devices with the familiar Palm OS for a couple more years and have to say that I personally know many people who never used a smartphone before who are enjoying the experience with the Centro.
