That is PRECISELY why Palm is now a non-player: They split into separate
hardware and software companies. Then when the software part wouldn't
provide the Palm OS anymore, the hardware part went with Windoze Mobile.
If the two components would merge back into one company, then maybe they
have a chance to survive.
A hardware company that doesn't control the software and a software
company that doesn't control the hardware can't innovate as they depend
on outsiders that don't share their vision.
