Somehow I find Palm’s historic “NO” to Android platform making much sense — after all they’ve been investing in their own platform for years. On the other hand, Palm could certainly benefit from the affiliation with nowadays everyone’s favorite company, Google, beyond the search giant’s mobile apps.
In its official statement, Palm said they are committed to open platforms for developers. In addition, they are underlining their added differentiation of being able to tightly integrate the software platform with the hardware design, which they believe gives them an advantage in delivering a great user experience… Hmmm, bundling the software with their own hardware… Sounds like an Apple statement, doesn’t it?
