Palm OS Spinoff

iCharles writes "According to this SEC filing per this Palm Infocenter story, it would appear that Palm is spinning off its OS devision. I'm a Handspring user, so it sounds quite interesting to me."

What a great idea!

Now if we could only convince Microsoft to do the same thing!

So what are they going to do?

Port Palm OS to the PC or something? That could be interesting....

If I owned BeOS

I'd get rid PalmOS too.

i guess that means we'll finally see linux on genuine Palm(tm) hardware, at the expense of have a cool processor name like the Dragonball VZ.

Oh come on. "Palm" OS running on an "ARM" processor, but without the "Thumb" extensions to the chipset, being sold by "Hand"spring and "Hand"Era? The possibilities are endless... :-)
