File this under “unlikely to happen,” but if you look at the Motorola Q9h (or Q2 as they call it) on Sprint’s Christmas teaser site, you’ll notice the Palm OS like icons. Can you imagine Motorola using Palm OS on its devices? Now that would be something especially for the image of the struggling Palm (Japan’s Access is the owner of Palm OS). Still, somehow we don’t see that happening — Motorola has its own Linux platform and also licences Symbian (UIQ) and Windows Mobile, do they really need to support another mobile OS?
Then again, who knows — maybe Motorola wants to differentiate its offering by awkwardly offering the same device running multiple operating systems. I guess we’ll have to wait and see. However, if this ends up happening – we may have a new Palm OS champion – Motorola!

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
