Palm Will Go Linux

Posted by: Vlad Balan in Palm




Palm Linux OS


Rumors say Palm's new version of their PalmOS will be based on a Linux Kernel. But don't worry, it seems that the new OS will still maintain some compatibility with Palm OS 5 Garnet (the latest version). This new Linux Kernel based OS will be Palm's homegrown OS and it will not be licensed to other manufacturers. The recent agreement between Palm and Opera make us think Opera will be the default browser.

Palm devices based on the Linux Kernel should appear before the end of the year, but some PalmOS 5 devices will still be introduced later this year.
