It looks like we are even closer to having this available. And it looks like it will be released as packages for older Palms to use. It would be great if I were able to use this on my T|C, but I&#8217;m really waiting for it to be integrated into PalmOS itself, and available on a smart phone, like the Treo 650. It requires the use of BES 4.x, and so I&#8217;m looking to see how you go about upgrading the BES server here from 3 to 4. Perhaps it will have to wait for Palm OS 6.2. Speaking of which, PalmSource needs to stop announcing all these <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brighthand.com\/article\/Palm_OS_Cobalt_6_1_Debuts\">releases of Palm OS6<\/a> and instead work on getting something out to people who own ARM powered devices. Why can&#8217;t we use 6 today on the Tungsten&#8217;s?<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s in A Name<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PalmSource is also getting a little confusing with the path they are taking. Are they really going to keep Palm OS 5 around while they release 6? Remember, Cobalt = OS 6 and Garnet = OS 5. If they keep Garnet around for cheap devices after the real launch of Cobalt then they are making a mistake. Its too confusing. Especially when you get into the application area. It sounds an awful lot like the whole Apple Coca \/Carbon stew.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So there was some noise the other day about PalmSource, RIM and the new BlackBerry Connect.
