Slashdot Mirror
Pictures Leaked of 3 new Palm handhelds
ahecht writes "On Thursday, Palm's Solutions Group's CEO Todd Bradley announced that 3 new handhelds will be released in October. Within 24 hours, pictures of all three handhelds have leaked out
on the web. The first to be released, the sub-$100
Zire, can be seen here. The second handheld,
previously known as
Oslo, now has
the name Tungsten T,
and features OS 5 and built in bluetooth (pictured
here).
The third handheld is the
Tungsten W,
pictured
here,
which is a GPRS smartphone (although it does not have a built-in speaker or
microphone). Zire will be released October 7th, while
both Tungsten models will be released on October 28th." Could just be rumors or fakes, but it seems reasonable.
yes yes, i agree, a Palm with an Arm just makes total sense to me. =)
A Penny for my thoughts? Here's my two cents. I got ripped off!
Well I guess that's how you solve the problem of leaked pictures. . . You post the site on slashdot, and the problem kinda works itself out.
Anyone have a mirror?
...one of these. Spiffy little bugger. Stylish as hell. The two buttons are for the datebook and the address book...isn't that what you most work with on a Palm, anyway? It would be nice to have a spare in reserve in case my m100 goes south. 2MB is a surprisingly large amount of space when you use lightweight Palm apps. It's like having a Mac SE in your pocket. I like it. It's not a replacement for a laptop or a Zaurus or an iPaq. It's a Palm. It's the right tool for the job.
Knowledge is power. Knowledge shared is power multiplied.
every shot of OS5 looks just like every other Palm OS since... well since the beginning.
;)
Yeah, what gives?... in Intro to HCI we learned the critical importance of changing the user interface as much as possible between OS versions. (Or was that, the importance of not changing... hm, well, maybe I shouldn't have slept through that lecture.

Damn! They're on to us! How are we supposed to slashdot sites if they do this?
It appears that we have mislead you by claiming that the new Palm-Dealy had a 32-bit display. In reality, it has a 4-bit greyscale display. The image we chose as a "demo screen" was a 32 bit image made with Maya, Bryce, and Vouse Espirit taking our render farm a week to render. It is not an actual screenshot of the next version of palmOS and it is not and actual image of the Palm-Dealy's screen. We apologize for the misconception and will offer $10 rebates against an accessory purchase valued at $1000 or more.
You can't judge a book by the way it wears its hair.
I wonder how powerful these are....
