Hello everybody,
I'm a palm user for more then 3 years and had 3 tungsten T devices in my company and am actually using a palm tungsten E.
I love the usability of palm devices but I was always disappointed when it comes to durability of the devices. (After a year the display doesn't work properly, on almost all devices that we used - there are many more disappointing factors.)
Now my tungsten E has a few display problems, so I'm thinking of replacing it.
I have googled a bit and many articles indicate that the Palm OS is not being developed anymore (OS 6, called Garnet, will never be released it seems). Symbian and Windows Mobile seem to have won the OS-war in the realm of PDAs.
I have to add that I have bought many many little programs for my palm devices and that switching to Pocket PC (Windows Mobile) would mean not being able to use those programs anymore. Also my impression from the articles is that Palm OS is much better suited for GTD-implementation. So I would really pity it to give up the palm platform.
I would appreciate any comment on this topic.
