I don't mean to seem cruel but - does anyone really care what Palm does anymore? I mean - they have a WiMo phone now... Even THEY aren't exclusively PalmOS. It doesn't even run on their Foleo - and there's another 'who cares' product.
Based on the replies to "Palm, it's time for an intervention", there are LOTS of people who still care about Palm, and hope that they can finally get out of the funk they are in. Competition is good for the marketplace, and no one wants to see a 100% MS smartphone market. If Palm can recapture some of the spark of their old days, they can be a viable competitor.

There's plenty of other competition though, with much more money to throw around - Nokia (Symbian), Apple, RIM, other Linux initiatives...
I think it's too late to save Palm. Even if they turned it around today, they wouldn't see the results for 2 years.
