Please please be Nokia! Top smartphone seller by far with the best platform by far sounds fun. However it almost certain that they would screw it.

Deputy...I heard rumors that Verizon might be looking to stop carrying Palm phones because of so few sales. Have you come into contact with this? Guess one analyst also mentioned it.

Serves Rubinstein right - the guy played games with the iTunes integration and messed the customer base around. Good tech but poorly run.

Haven't seen it. I imagine they'd want to sell out their inventory. But if they are focusing on Android and eventually the iPhone, and Palm phones aren't selling, it wouldn't be a huge shock.

Most buyers are waiting to pick up a Windows 7 Series phone I think. The market has too many players. I feel bad for Palm and all those poor stockholders who made and lost a fortune.

RIM's the only plausible suitor. But their customers seem willing to gladly suffer a crap OS so long as they get a decent keyboard and mail app. So unless RIM's internal efforts to modernize their OS...

I tried to buy a Pre but Sprint wouldn't sell it to me without more-than-doubling my monthly bill to as much as an iphone costs. So I got an iphone instead. Even without factoring in network effects,...

I kind of like your idea that RIM might buy Palm. They were both known for their emphasis on keyboards, so why not? RIM needs a better touch OS. There's no reason why they can't run two OSes until they...

I agree with the other comments that RIM needs a better touch OS (and WebOS might be a good fit) but buying all of Palm is an overly expensive way to upgrade. RIM has the brand, the sales channel and...

Hardly seems surprising. I live in New Zealand and I have never seen the new Palm devices in person. Vodafone's site turns up empty results when listing Palm phones. Sure, NZ isn't a big market by a...

HP! They've completely screwed up and missed their opportunity in the mobile space by relying on Windows Mobile. HP could get back in the game by buying Palm, keeping the Palm brand (call it the HP...
