GSPDA to Make the First Palm OS Cobalt Smartphone (Brighthand)
Quote:
For the first time, a company has said it will definitely release a Cobalt device before the end of this year.
Over the weekend, Group Sense PDA (GSPDA) made a presentation of its latest smartphone, the Xplore M68, to the Paris PUG.
At this, Tim Wong, GSPDA's General Manager of Business Development, was asked if his company was going to release a smartphone running Cobalt. Mr. Wong responded by saying that not only will GSPDA release a Palm OS Cobalt smartphone, it will be the first company to do so.
Mr. Wong did not give an estimated time for when this device will be released, but he did say it would be before the end of this year.
He also said that while GSPDA will release the first smartphone with Cobalt, some other company may release a Cobalt handheld first.

Well, it's about time! The last statement is tantalizing, to say the least. Maybe PalmOne is developing a Cobalt-based PDA after all.
