With their market share dropping ever lower these days, Palm’s taken a proactive approach to streamlining its operation. Rather than finalize and launch their MyPalm portal out of beta-land, Palm has apparently decided to close-up shop on their Palm information portal.
On September 1, 2008, MyPalm will cease to exist.
Here’s Palm’s explanation for killing of MyPalm:
We?re [sic] working hard at Palm to deliver great products and services to our customers. The MyPalm Beta program gave us an opportunity to provide certain offers and service to members. We collected great feedback from our valued customers on ways to improve customer experience. Participation in new offers and services will not require customers to sign up for the MyPalm Beta program.
Sounds like a roundabout explanation that essentially tries to avoid saying what we all know to be true – MyPalm just didn’t work out. But, once MyPalm turns off the lights for good, at least it’s comforting to know that future services and offers won’t require the user to sign up for MyPalm.
Confused much?
