Some of Palm's problems are poor management. However ATT and Verizon make Palm bleed red from all the hoops they have to jump through.
Case in point. The Treo 750 WM6 upgrade. This should have been out months ago. However, because of the assholes at ATT Palm had to waste man hours putting stupid shit in the upgrade and taking away things that should be there (like Windows Live Mobile).
I hope this kind of abuse changes when the 700mhz spectrum auction takes place...but it may be too late for Palm. |

| It doesn't help that they are trying to continue a technology that has been passed up. "Devices" that can do what a Palm can are common now, they no longer have the market. And this tube TV manufacturer is now suffering from everyone else's plasma and LCD products.

| As do I. And I also still prefer the image quality of a CRT over LCD. But Palm simply can't expect to maintain the same sales, profits, and employment numbers now that they aren't the ONLY game in town, and now that there are newer technologies (a flip size cell phone that can also do everything a palm can for example)

Even PocketPC 1.0 hardware was able to run full-on NES emulation from the word 'go'.  |
