Palm Pre Development In the Browser

Posted by Soulskill on Sunday December 20, 2009 @05:17AM from the pre-existing-condition dept.

introspekt.i writes "Palm is building upon the Mozilla Bespin project to deliver an IDE for the Palm Pre entirely in the web browser. Apps can be developed on the server and then downloaded and deployed locally. It is an interesting tool, especially given that WebOS is so web-centric. This tool comes as a supplement to the existing development tools for Eclipse and the command line released by Palm earlier this year. The project is open to anyone who registers as a Palm developer, which is free to do."

A J2ME runtime will not save them. It's essentially useless for the market they are going for. I think they underestimated how much they needed to do to compete better with the likes of Apple/RIM/Windows Mobile/Android.
Palm Pre? by glrotate · 2009-12-20 05:45 · Score: 0, Troll

Isn't that things 15 minutes up?
Do any developers actually care about the Pre?
