Well, AT&T’s missed it before, and they’ve missed it again. But, could AT&T be on track to release the incredibly sought-after and highly-anticipated Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional upgrade this week (or soon, at least)? The update was rumored for a release earlier this week, but apparently went back into hiding when AT&T noticed bugs in…
Palm says “NO” to Android
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.

Red Palm Centro now available on Sprint
Roughly a week ago we’ve reported the Palm Centro is available on Sprint. Now we have red version also hitting the CDMA carrier. As far as we can see, except the color – the phone stays intact, offering the good ol’ Palm OS experience combined with full QWERTY keyboard to its true fans. The same…

Palm trades 25% stake to Elevation Partners for $325 million
Palm’s been falling behind on the innovation front that gave them the market edge all those years ago – there’s no denying that.

Palm’s next generation OS now delayed to mid 2009
In an interview yesterday with Jon Rubinstein, Executive Chairman and Head of Product Development at Palm, he stated that it will take 18 months for new products to come out.

So, we’re here at CTIA San Francisco 2007 and the first thing on our agenda was the Microsoft launch luncheon (try saying that three times, fast).

AT&T updates for Palm Treo 680 and 750 on the way?
Well, actually, they were supposed to be on the way. You see, according to a leaked slide-show package from within AT&T, the Palm Treo 750 was supposed to get some updates from AT&T on October 15 – that launch windows has gone and passed, we’re still holding out for the Palm Treo 750 update to…

A rumor is floating around the Web that AT&T is working with Palm on the GSM-based Centro smartphone. Apparently, Sprint’s exclusivity will not last that long and AT&T wants to make some money from the remaining Palm OS addicts. Naturally, nothing is still confirmed but somehow it makes sense for both Palm and AT&T —…
