Recent news from Palm is that it will not be developing new handsets based on Microsoft’s Windows Mobile any more but will leverage the capabilities of its own webOS platform. The new OS has already been released in the USA in June of this year and will debut in Europe through Telefonica. Also the yet to be launched Palm Pixi will run on webOS.
Owing to the importance of webOS to the overall strategy of Palm the company has decided to dedicate all future development resources to the evolution of webOS. This signifies that the company plans to include only Palm webOS-based devices, declared Palm CEO Paul Rubinstein.
It comes as no surprise as Sprint’s Palm Pre is quite a success with its QWERTY slider keyboard, 3.2 megapixel camera, GPS, Wi-Fi and capacitance-based touchscreen. These features were made possible on the compact Palm Pre by the webOS. The company now plans to go ahead with the operating system.
Although revenue wise Palm has not regained its past position it is making inroads in the right direction feel the company heads and market analysts.
Going ahead without Windows Mobile is a step to garner support from enterprise users too. Soon you may have a webOS powered Palm Treo which might  make a come back and give stiff competition to the BlackBerry which is hailed as the business phone for now and for ever.
