Depends on which "Palm" format you are talking about. Sounds like you are talking about what many call PalmDoc or just DOC, which is actually AportisDoc format. People think it is a subset of Mobi (or iSilo, or TealDoc, or...) because virtually all the Palm ebook readers, including Mobi, could also read AportisDoc files. The format was compressed, but only displayed plain text, so there were several other formats that added various features, but DOC files were a reliable fallback. Several formats were actually extensions of AportisDoc, but I do not know if Mobi is one of them.
The only document format that actually carried the "Palm" name though was Palm Reader, renamed to eReader after Palm sold it. Mobipocket software cannot read eReader files.
