| Maemo was developed in-house by Nokia, and is made up
| of a number of open and closed source bits and pieces,
| including Debian Linux. It draws much of its GUI,
| frameworks, and libraries from the GNOME project. The
| much anticipated N900 is the flag bearer for the OS,
| and Nokia is already running a 'fun' competition
| designed to highlight its possibilities.

Palm Pre: Top-notch smartphone, despite some hardware gaps
,----[ Quote ]
| Pre wins a lot of points for style. The black, shiny and
| uniform exterior looks great and the device is slight enough to
| fit easily in your pocket and in the palm of your hand. Its
| curved edges and simple design â there's only one visible
| button when the keyboard is closed â make it approachable. It's
| a phone you'll want to hold.

Palm Pre beats expectations, drops WiMo to focus on WebOS
,----[ Quote ]
| Part of that strategy involves dumping any
| distractions, including both the companyâs original
| Palm OS and the Windows Mobile partnership that Palm
| forged with Microsoft in 2006, a year before Rubinstein
| arrived. Palmâs
| support for Windows Mobile helped nearly double
| Microsoftâs market share at the time.

Review: Pre - Palm Strikes Back
,----[ Quote ]
| Once upon a time Palm claimed the most loyal developer base among smartphone and
| handheld manufactures. Its 30,000-strong catalog of apps for the Palm OS was the envy of
| Palm's rivals. With the webOS, the company is basically starting from scratch.
