Palm has released its web-based Ares SDK to the group of select developers. The “fairly advanced alpha” version should allow interested companies and individuals to create their apps without installing any software on their computers. Unfortunately, the program is already full, and until Palm opens it again, we (I) won’t be able to try it out. Except in case they answer to the plead written all over this post.
Just kidding, I have no webOS device, though I’m looking forward to try it out at the upcoming Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
Palm finished its post in developer forums with promise to accept more developers in the future, as soon as Ares graduates to beta, I guess.

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.
