Hello, Jim Duffield. On 6/9/2008 10:40 AM you said: > Word on the street is that the new version of Palm OS (Nova is the > current name) will be linux-based, support WiFi, BT and possibly both > CDMA and GSM on the same device.
CDMA and GSM are two completely different technologies. To "support" both on a single device is a hardware issue more than a software one - the phone would require two cellular radios. So you'd be talking about a phone with five, maybe six completely different radios (one for BT, one for WiFi, one for CDMA, one for GSM, and one for GSM data). Not impossible, but rather unlikely I think. > The new OS is supposed to be completed in the latter part of 2008, > and new devices will come out probably around or shortly after > Christmas. I'll believe that when I see it. -- Jeffrey Kaplan www.gordol.org The from userid is killfiled Send personal mail to gordol DISCLAIMER: Not authorized for use as critical components in life support devices or systems.
