No matter what you say, what justifications the phone has for being a POS, the fact remains it still is a POS… has been labled a POS by a majority of the smartphone community, and will probably remain a POS due to this, regardless of what hardware they put the OS in and the tweaks they make.

webOS is a flop, the onyl thing that was remotely cool about it was the cards feautre, which they made a big deal about… which turned out to not work like they had said due to hardware limitiations etc… and now android has a similar feature… and im sure iphone will too… webOS has nothing revoloutionary to offer that android hasent done and that iphone probably will do.

Game over Palm.
