The rumored Palm device becomes reality today. Palm have officially confirmed that they will launch a new device today by posting a press invitation for a live web conference.
“Palm to Announce New Mobile Device on May 30“
There are no clues as to what the device might be but most people in the online mobile community believe that it will be a device that sits between the smartphone and notebook PC market. A mobile computing device. Possibly a low-end or targeted UMPC.
Palm usually take a very targeted approach to their products. Where Windows is a catch-all solution, Palm have tended to focus in to a target group of users so it will be very interesting to see what market they will aim for (I’m guessing the media exec market that hasn’t been hit by Apple yet.) and what device that they come up with.
The palm Webcast is planned for 11:30am Pacific Time. Later in the day Steve and Bill will be on the stage. Its going to be a busy day today for a lot of bloggers!
