I don't get you guys. The cellular market is huge. There are nore users with a normal phone. There are few less that can simply take a call, take a pic and send SMS.
The features that a Palm OS phone can perform out weighs most phone on the market as it is without Linux, without Wifi, without any new feature. The percentage that has any clue what you guys want are a much smaller group. Combine all the users of Smartphones, Treos, Q's, Razors or any popular phone you can name and that number does not compare to the number of people starving to have a phone that offers what Palm's phones offer today. Palm would very well with a Centro that would appear to those people with the right price and with features that they never had before. With that said, Palm still should continue to improve on the highend devices. I am one of the most heavy duty power users you ever meet and there is nothing that I am missing in my Treo 755p that make even slightly think of going with any other platform. I work with these devices and have seen everything on the market and have seen the support side of the hype that follow these dream phones that everyone keeps thinking will save them mobile puratory. As much as people think the Centro and the Foleo are terrible ideals are missing something in the translation. Wait until these are in the market and they person is sitting next to and using it, I bet your tune will change. Thanks, I'll see you on the web! Carl W.

This is Palm's PR bullshit machine in action once again. They have been promising MANY things during the last YEARS ans delivered very little. Palm will either release a decent Smartphone in 2008 with PalmOS 2, or cease to exist (as a Smartphone player, it may survive by selling reheated models and expanding in third world markets and in the bargain market in developed countries by going low-cost through price cuts and carrier subsidies, but it will just be a blip in the Smartphone radar, a sad remain of the tsunami the Treo once was. - - - - - Sandro Campos Mancini -----Original Message----- From: JLV <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Saturday, Aug 25, 2007 9:14 am Subject: [Treo] Palm Responds to Engadget To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [email protected] Thanks Engadget >Dear Peter, Ryan and Joshua: >Thank you for the very thoughtful post about Palm.
