Is there a desire to open a Pocket PC/Windows Mobile forum here on DC?
Eóin:
Though it concentrates on smartphones, xda-developers is an extraordinarily active Windows Mobile forum. Honestly much as I love DC it seems the definitive resource for the mobile platform to me.

By Priya Ganapati EmailFebruary 11, 2009
Palm will drop its long-in-the-tooth mobile operating system, Palm OS, in favor of the company's new Web OS, which will debut with its upcoming Pre phone.
Palm will focus on Web OS and Windows Mobile for all future devices, company CEO Ed Colligan told investors Wednesday.

Too bad. It was a nice little PDA OS. It was the perfect replacement/complement to a paper-based planner system like the DayTimer or Franklin.
Maybe it doesn't do a lot by today's web-enabled standards. But what it does do, it still does very well. 8)

I still use a steam-driven Palm IIIxe.
Mind you, I have less than no desire to monitor web pages with a system that I think offers a view akin to 'what the butler saw', nor do I want anyone trying to telephone or e-mail me when I'm not at my desk (if then). That's what human PA's are for.

I was going to say yes- I have had a WM phone for years of one kind or another, and I had planned to get an HTC Fuze in the next month or so. But I'm going over to the dark side and getting an iPhone. :-[

Is anyone familiar with similar sites for Palm OS? I have a Palm TX.
