Since one year, Palm pulled itself back from the brink of imminent destruction with the announcement of the Palm Pre and webOS. Even less time since the products announced hit the market.
The company has issued another small and less powerful Pixi handset in that time period, they released a number of over-the-air updates to its OS and created a slew of developer tools that includes iterative releases of its SDK as well as a new web-based development environment called Ares.
Palm has been “back” throughout the ups and downs of the past one year, the company has its lone carrier partner in the US so they have stuck with Sprint. So, the third-place partner has kept it from the larger audiences AT&T or Verizon might offer while company’s been tweaking and innovating on its devices and platform.
Now, Palm has opened its devices up to the country’s largest carrier, in addition to bumping the specs and features of both phones it includes:
• Pre getting an additional 8GB of storage and double the RAM
• And Pixi is now equipped with WiFi
So Palm can really get this ship sailing, court the developers it badly needs, and deliver on the promises of webOS.
I don’t know it is too late or too little but I will have this answer soon.
