 I have a PalmOne T5 running under Palm 5. Do you think Palm will ever
upgrade the firmware to use Palm OS 6?

I know the T5 was supposed to come out with that OS, but didn't (it was
also crippled with bugs when it came out so I imagine they had to rush
it out to the shelves)

I tried PalmOS6 with the emulator from the SDK, I like it. I wish
they'd upgrade it some day :) I'm sure the T5 is powerful enough!

No, for several reasons. One of which is that your T5 will run better
under OS5.

You are mistaken. OS6 was not for handhelds. It's for palm-based phones.
The T5 was never slated to get OS6.

Maybe, but since you can't upgrade the OS on it, it's irrelevant.

That would force us to have pretty powerful phones then !
