New Palm Pictures?

New Palm writes "It looks like pictures of a new Palm os5 device codenamed 'Oslo' have hit the web. www.pocketpcthought.com had them up, but after a phonecall from Palm's Director of Global Information Security, pulled the pictures. A number of people are mirroring them. Looks semi-legit - but who knows, and who knows how long the images will stay up?

Probably until the Slash dot effect kicks in, and their monthly bandwith allowance is sucked dry like a raisin in the sun in Death Valley.

Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.

Hrmmmm

Isn't it interesting that the mirror link indicated in the slashdot article is to a site called davesipaq.com?

It looks like they took that dial interface from the ipod and shrunk it and stuck it in the middle of the typical palm buttons.

I can picture the marketing meeting now...

Drone 1: Alright, listen up. So I leak these pictures...
Drone 2: Then we go out and tell everyone not to post them!
Drone 1: Brilliant! Let's all go home early and drink expensive wine.

Drone1: Lets stick `em on the net
Drone2: No-one will notice - lets do a proper press release.
Drone1: Cant be bothered. Look if we stick it on the net, then withdraw it, people will mirror it all over the net just to get back at `the man`.
Drone2: No way..what, people with computer skills still trying to get back at their parents for not giving them every last thing they wanted while they were growing up, taking it out on the nearest authority figure? I dont believe it.
Drone3: hey hey, come here guys, you wont believe what they`re talking about on SlashDot...
