Well, there's no place that you can legally get it until Palm releases it as
a generally-available public download. They might do this now that it has
been patched up to 3.5.2 and might have all the bugs out.
IMO, anyone who writes a general-purpose application that will only run on
3.5 is really cutting themselves out of a large market. There are a lot of
non-upgradeable 3.3 and earlier units out there, as well as a lot of people
who would be way over their heads trying to do an OS upgrade (if they would
even ever know about it).
You can still write an app for 3.5 and have it run on earler versions, up to
a point. Of course, if you write something that is very model-specific, such
as a color-only app, then using the new OS features is no problem.
