In the article I read today on PreCentral, it said that Palm's major investors, Elevation Partners, say that webOS is a ten year strategy, so it's still early in the game.
I didn't know that Bono (of U2) was one of the big investors in Palm. Interesting.

Are you trying to start a rumor, Vishal? ;-) Palm has had many bad quarters in the past and there stock has been lower. We'll see what happens of course, but they're not going to just shut down operations before they're purchased by a larger company. Currently there doesn't seem to be an obvious buyer, but you never know what will happen. Palm has been seemingly almost dead many times, and still seems to have more lives than a cat.
