Palm was slated to bust out a new consumer-oriented OS this year, but CEO Ed Colligan says it’s not happening until ‘08. Palm’s still going to be supporting Windows Mobile, in a vain dual-pronged attempt to stave off their inevitably slow, painful death. The new Linux-based OS would have to pull some pretty massive bunnies out of some very tiny hats in order to offset the shuddering 43% drop in profits last quarter. The Gandolf and Foleo sure aren’t going to save Palm, that’s for sure.

tron: Anyone want a free copy of PeekaWho for BlackBerry? Go here: http://tinyurl.com/5sa9cj
tron: @bbunderground Telus will do it on a three year, though... Sigh. Probably no 8GB MicroSD card either.
tron: @CoffeeDaze @ASacco I agree, although cheaper than the iPhone would have brought more hype. What is Krackow smoking though?
tron: should Verizon give away the BlackBerry Storm? I kinda thing $199 is a pretty good deal... http://tinyurl.com/6dwjyc
tron: @CoffeeDaze akk! Water wouldn't have been that bad, but a BB can't handle puke and mudd.
tron: @CoffeeDaze what did you do to it? It might be reparable...
