What's going on with Palm after the successful launch of their newest Palm Pre? Seems a couple of great exciting things is on the way:
- Palm Pre soon will be available in the UK through O2. This information has spread across the internet. Although it is not yet being confirmed by Palm nor O2, rumors said that by next week a formal announcement will be made.This means soon the GSM version of the Palm Pre will become available. I predicted once the GSM version spread in UK or Europe, there would be no reason why this exciting GSM based Palm device would not appear very soon in the Asia market as well! Having such in the Asia market would be truly astounding!!
- Palm predicted that they would be able to sell 1 million smartphones within this quarter. While this is not yet as astounding as Apple iPhone 3Gs achievement, surely this is an excellent headstart for Palm to be back in the game! Again Blackberry RIM better watch out, unless they quickly able to innovate their BlackberryOS pretty soon, their leading marketshare could start to erode sometime in the not too distant future.
- Palm EOS (a.k.a Pixie) rumored would be soon be available in November 2009. Many people not sure yet whether the 'future' Pixie would sell exclusively on Sprint, or whether it will be available through other operator. Nevertheless, this would again mean: Blackbery RIM better watch out, unless they quickly innovate their BlackberryOS and their touch-based devices, people might consider the new Palm Pre and/or the new Palm EOS/Pixie as a 'smarter' alternative in smartphone devices.
- Palm sees the future as really bright, as the smartphone market is growing consistently year to year until the next 3-5 years. As demand for smartphone market continously soar and rapidly growing each year, Palm seem confident that such increasing demand provide enough space for more-than-one smartphone vendor to exist in the smartphone market. This means: we might see Palm step by step successfully make its great comeback in the marketplace. With this, they would have the next change again to invent, create and introduce even greater and even more exciting innovations, invention and design in the smartphone market -- through its amazing WebOS operating system, or WebOS based device. Seeing that happening -- again -- would be truly astounding!
