I second Charles, I've switched from palmos to inferno emu [1], and I've accomodated Acme/Plumber to do the tasks I was doing before: read texts, play music, view images, (more to come) ..., just by writting some plumber rules to my $home/lib/plumbing and setting some guide files with the most launched/common commands. Altogether the behaviour is more homogenous, you don't need to know each app idiosyncrasy (buttons, menus, ..), since you can run things directly from acme, and looking a particular man file, or source file when you need to. And once you get used to it, doing new things results easier since all you need to know is Acme, my feel is that on the palmos doing things is more application specific, i think this is similar to the idea of bootstrap [2].
