>Please properly verify your information! Roger, I did not said it, I just quoted an online article which I admit was confusing too. If you have read the whole post, I also posted another article with correct informations.
>It is entirely useless to post this kind of erroneous FUD information. It's not useless since people who are not familiar with Palm and its economy might be disapointed on some of the articles posted on popular web sites. And the post was to clearify the situation and point out true and false information. There are too many wrong interpretations of Palm annual report this subject needs to be cleared to stop panic and speculations, to resume : 1) Palm will NOT stop licensing Palm OS on December 2, 2006. They are just relieved of obligaton to make minimum royalty payments to PalmSource after this date and are currently in negociations with PalmSource. 2) Palm will use Garnet for some of its new products. 3) Palm have reported its sales results and their business is NOT harmed and doing very well. 4) Garnet developers and users will be able to run *well written* applications on ALP. 5) Palm just alerted its investors of possible risks in the future. Any annual rapport should mention that and among these risks there is also earthquakes. "Our operations and those of our suppliers and customers are vulnerable to interruption by fire, hurricanes, earthquake, power loss, telecommunications failure, computer viruses, computer hackers, terrorist attacks, wars, military activity, labor disruptions, health epidemics and other natural disasters and events beyond our control." IT'S JUST A POSSIBILITY, and recent events was wrongly interpreted by some people and/or emphasized to look bad, perhaps due to old Cobalt issues. But what happened has nothing to do with it and it's like saying that the next earthquake in Asia will make PalmSource disappear. It's wrong and same could be speculated about any other firm. -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
