Sure...and some people like Symbian and Android, too, but that doesn't mean 
Palm should produce handsets that use them.

Having products w/ multiple OSes creates a lot of problems for Palm:
- multiple help systems
- disparate user experiences (one of which it can't control)
- divided engineering resources w/o much overlap
- inconsistent marketing messages
and so on...

>From a purely business perspective, Palm has more to gain than lose from 
abandoning WinMo if webOS takes off.
