Palm Pre

Palm reports today the COB and it is expected that they are going to have a pretty big miss on earnings… $0.43-$0.48 per share.  Normally you would see companies stock price in this situate tank, however, Palm has been on an upward journey most of the day.  The reason for this, I’m guessing, is that Read more...

New Palm Pre Commercial

This is the latest TV ad from Palm .  It’s actually pretty good.  Unfortunately for Palm, they didn’t launch the Pre with ads like this. Instead of a little Mos Def and a hot young lady walking down the street showing you what webOS can do, the marketing geniuses at Palm decided to freak you Read more...
