Palm Will No Longer Develop Windows Mobile Devices

[ThrillHill1]

Have you guys seen this? (http://www.treocentral.com/content/Stories/2627-1.htm)

I know it makes business sense for Palm...but does this mean they (Palm) will leave Palm Treo Pro users out in the cold?:confused:

Unluckily the things seem to be working this way. The latest device will be provided with "Palm WebOS", a fake Palm OS operating system based on Web surfing and a proprietary interface that has nothing to do with previous editions....... As usual, Palm repeatedly changed his mind last years, and now all of us have a fuckin' piece of plastics that is worth always less.......... Thank you Palm, thank you for having cheated us :(

I understand what Palm need :)
For the first time, since Treo 700w/750 many "great" idea from Palm are revealed and distribute to another ROM (competitor). Program like SMSThreated etc, now become default on many today Windows Mobile gadget.

Maybe Palm need to protect their future idea from another WinMo users :)
Palm has make their decission, to focus "fake" Palm WebOS. Well, lets see how their mind (Palm inc.) will change, if their WinMo customers switch to another HTC gadget :)

Oh my gosh... Treo Pro and Treo 750 will be my last Palm gadget, instead of Centro or oldies Treo 650 :)

Maybe that's why my telco dropped the Treo Pro when it had only been out 6 months - had to buy from an unaffiliated box seller (cheaper that way though).
Recent Treos, and a couple of HTC models (e.g. touch pro2), are the only WM devices that I'd consider to be ok-good as a *phone*, rather than a "workable PDA with voice tacked on".
