CES09: Palm silences doubters with new OS and phone
,----[ Quote ]
| But the big news is the operating system that will run on Pre. The Palm web
| OS has been years in the making and was designed specifically with the mobile
| web in mind. Its aim is to create a near "invisible" interface that is
| seamless, intuitive and almost a step ahead of users.
|
| I will get into the OS in a longer story later, but I found it incorporates
| some of the best stuff in the iPhone and Google's Android platform. The Pre
| apparently has a capacitive touch so the Palm web OS works very smoothly with
| flicks, swipes and the ever-popular pinching maneuver.

Palm eyes a rebound at CES, maybe with Linux
,----[ Quote ]

| phrased invitations promising "Palm New-Ness" to journalists at CES. Will
| Palm launch a new Linux OS at the show? Or will it even resurrect Foleo?

Dual Boot Linux on a Palm TX
,----[ Quote ]
| The folks at Eyebeam have put together a couple of pre-configured packages
| and simple steps for setting up a dual boot environment for Linux on a number
| of Palm PDAs. There is also a video guide posted on Instructables (embedded
| after the break) that walks through the process with a Palm TX. This method
| involves copying over a PDA optimized Linux boot image to an SD card and
| going from there.
