There always are all sorts of crazy rumors always floating around the wireless industry. One is that Palm is coming back, and that Verizon Wireless will introduce it later this year. That’s right. Palm, one of the two original smartphones. Before the Apple iPhone, Google Android and Samsung Galaxy, there was Palm and Blackberry. The last was the Palm Pre. That was their last gasp, then they faded into the sunset.
So, will Palm be reborn? And if it is, will it make an impact?
In the 1990s, smart phones were not a big deal. They were a business device. There were only a couple hundred business-oriented apps. We all carried a plain wireless phone like we all had a POTS phone on the wall in our kitchen. If you recall, POTS meant plain old telephone service.
