Palm dumps Windows Mobile

by Volker Weber

Not really surprising:

Due to importance of webOS to our overall strategy, we've made the decision to dedicate all future develoment resources to the evolution of webOS. Which means that going forward, our roadmap will include only Palm webOS-based devices.

Palm introduced Windows Mobile in order to sell Treos through mobile carriers which did not want another OS next to Symbian, Windows Mobile and BlackBerry. Palm customers always wanted Palm OS, and people who wanted Windows Mobile often bought HTC devices instead.

It's good to see Palm getting back on track with webOS. First the Pre, then the Pixi, and probably more devices in the future. I hope they will be able to get back into the black. The company is still bleeding money, but investors are confident.
