A company will not innovate when there is nothing to compete against. It just doesn't make sense. Sadly, we are not the important factors here, it is the shareholders and the carriers that matter. Even though we are the end users, most of Palm's Treo customers are the carriers. We are not really their customers. We are Sprint, Cingular, Verizon, and GSM customers, not Palm's.

If anyone is so dead-set for Palm innovation, they will NOT buy their products. One person may not speak loudly, but legions of them will. However, I do not see that happening.

Bottom line? We are left to be happy with what Palm comes out with or buy something else.
