With Palm just about ready to ditch their aging Palm OS platform for the Linux-based goodness of the Access Linux Platform (ALP) 3.0, Palm customers with older handsets might be feeling a bit left behind. Palm has all but declared their Palm OS dead in the water, and we can’t imagine that there...

We (ok, I) make no secret of our (alright, my) fondness for Palm OS here at Pocket Picks.
Access were the lucky/crazy company that bought the rights to Palm OS and renamed it Garnet OS. Since releasing Garnet and various emulators to get it working on several different platforms, Access have been working...

The aging Palm Treo 700 platform has apparently gotten some ROM-update love on the down-low. Palm has pushed out two new ROM updates to its Verizon Palm Treo 700p and Alltel Palm Treo 700wx devices with nary a peep. The Palm OS-powered Palm Treo 700p for Verizon gets a radio ROM update that is said to...

What better way to keep that aging smartphone from feeling a little less "wise" in years, especially when compared with the new wave of smartphone hotness slated to drop in the coming months, than to give it a quick firmware update? To be fair, the Palm Treo 755p isn't exactly old, but...

The ability to blog on-the-go is at once a blessing and a curse. Mobile blogging (or, moblogging, as it were) opens up so much in the way of productivity, but it also puts a kibosh on all "away from the computer" excuses. Double-edged swords like this are commonplace in the mobile space. With...

TouchLauncher is a new Palm OS launcher app that will make your Treo or Centro (or even older Palm PDAs) look and feel more like an iPhone. Not only you can start application in the "iPhone manner," but you can also scroll with your finger between multiple screens and get number of unread text...

If BlackBerry and iPhone users can have it, so can Palm OS based smartphone owners. I'm talking about the Facebook application, the one that allows you to poke and chat with your buddies while pretending to work. Facebook is now fully optimized for Palm OS. The native application allows users to...

While we're still waiting for the next-gen version of the Palm OS (Nova), you may want to use some of the older Palm OS apps on other, non-Palm OS powered devices. Thanks to StyleTap's Palm OS emulators you can do that on various platforms. Back in February, we saw they're thinking about...

Here's a neat freeware for Palm Centro owners. TreoSpot uses cellular towers to determine your location and allows you to set reminders based on your present location. First you define the towers and then create reminders when you enter certain area. This is very neat for such events when you need...

As we may have mentioned, we rather like the old Palm OS devices here at Pocket Picks. Whatever your misgivings about the PDAs themselves, you can’t deny that they had one of the best libraries of freware and shareware pps around - over 20,000 apps at the last count.
StyleTap is a Palm OS emulator...

StyleTap created an experimental build of the CrossPlatform Palm emulator for the iPhone/iPod Touch. At this stage, their idea is only to prove that's possible and I guess to tease the rest of us. There's a notice on their site saying this is NOT a product and you shouldn't ask for it...
