Next-Gen Palm OS Will Be "Between Centro and Treo," All About the Internets
Talking to APC, Palm CEO Ed Colligan revealed some of the broader strokes of its next-gen OS, upon which the company's hopes for relevance are inexorably pinned. Due in '09, it'll be "a new prosumer brand" that fits "in between the Centro and Treo lines." He refers to the OS as "Palm 2.0" at one point—as in Web 2.0—noting that it's "driven around the Internet and Web-based applications," which APC says it like "a very modern take on the original OS."

Leaked Palm Treo 850 Specs: Hurray for Wi-Fi
Fresh off those leaked spy shots of Palm's Treo 850 is some more espionage in the form of meaty specs. This source is unproven (and the info comes from a "friend who works at Palm") so don't take these as hard rumors, yet. The big whoop is Wi-Fi for the first time, while the other stuff is more run o' the mill: HSDPA, 320x320 touchscreen, 2MP cam, microSD, 256MB onboard memory plus 32MB SDRAM, miniUSB and WinMo 6.1. The RAM spec conflicts with what BGR said, 100MB. Again, this source is not battle-tested, but here's hoping they're right about the Wi-Fi at least. [TamsPPC]

palm treo 800w
Remember that rumored mockup of the Palm Skywriter we showed you last week? Yeah, this spyshot (courtesy of aliased citizen Shadowmite) of the finished Treo 800w shows the prototype was pretty spot on with the button layout of this WinMo phone. While unconfirmed, the 800w is expected to run WinMo 6.1 on a 400 MHz processor with 128 MB of RAM and have 256 MB of flash memory. It's also rumored to introduce a few firsts for the Palm brand — namely EVDO Rev.A, GPS, and Wi-Fi.

No New Palm Treo Handsets Until Late Summer
Electronista reminds me of a bit I missed from last week's Palm earnings call. Palm CEO Ed Colligan said that there wouldn't be any new Treos til late Summer. I'm not sure if that means announce or release, but I'll take that as a sign that Palm, who hasn't done anything new in hardware since the Centro, and anything really new in software since forever, is cooking up something greater than a mere revision.

He says the 800w will look like a Palm Centro with rounded corners and thin body. It will ship with Windows Mobile 6, but be upgradeable to 6.1 when that hits. More »

RIM Device Users Are Having a Gay Old Time
A survey of business smartphone users has declared those using BlackBerries to be the most satisfied. Palm and Samsung offerings both drew in second place. The main six areas that were surveyed included OS, physical design, ease of operation, audio quality, battery life and utility feature set. RIM excelled in areas concerning battery life and OS efficiency. The Palm Treo's keyboard managed to bag some plus points, as did general voice quality of devices running the Windows Mobile OS. The survey went on to predict the future of the smartphone market: More »

Palm Partners With Garmin For New GPS Navigator
Today Palm announced that a partnership with Garmin has produced a new Palm GPS Navigator with Garmin Mobile XT software. Users of Palm smartphones like the Treo and Centro can now enjoy access to over 6 million points of interest and turn-by-turn voice prompted directions, as well as free access to Garmin Online for info like traffic updates, fuel and hotel prices, and weather forecasts (that's right...free). At this point, the TomTom version is still available from Palm, but that will most likely change when the Garmin version hits this November for $249. [Press Release]

AT&T Palm Centro?
There's an image floating around the web today of a Palm Centro running AT&T software. Now, we're just trying to figure out if this an actual future GSM model or just the bastard offspring off a failed deal between Palm and AT&T. Given the trumpeting of Sprint exclusivity, the latter is more likely. Thoughts? (Here's how to comment.) [Gear Diary]
