    I'm sure glad they recently discovered three more elements! Now Palm can make three more versions of their OS.

    Palm OS Cobalt is designed to enable multiple applications to run simultaneously, so users gain more productivity and a better user experience. For example, a user can listen to MP3 files, book a calendar appointment and take an incoming phone call.
    wow! I really don't know how to listen to MP3 AND make phone call, AND GAIN PRODUCTIVITY! Can anybody tell me?
