Palm has stepped up and really came out for the community in the San Francisco Bay Area. After trying unsuccessfully for 2 weeks to find a location, Palm stepped in and offered their own campus to hold the biggest preDevCamp in the world. Many Palmn engineers are attending as well as tons of other interested parties inside and outside of Palm. Please don't throw the baby out with the bath water for Palm making one stupid mistake when they were nervous about Apple and everyone else finding out their dates. Now the pre is out Palm is starting to really show the love for the grassroots community springing up to develop apps for them. Examples - Early release of the SDK just over a month after the phone was released. The freedom it has given the homebrew community - It patched the phone with the 1.1 patch and it could have totally locked it down, but it didn't. Palm is starting to get it, keep in mind most of Palms people are ex-apple or ex-adobe so secrets are a big deal, cut them some slack, they are learning to open up.

Well, baby. All you gotta do is listen... and talking don't work so good. Its just tech toys and nothing that needs this many words. (referring to my words in this post) Like everything I've ever been involved with... best of times, worst of times... it sucks or its great but it is what it is. Enjoy it or don't, you only get to do it once. Be on the team or don't. Buy it or don't. Buy in or not. You choose. I choose. But lets just do it instead of talking bout it. its sucks but its lovely, is bad but its misunderstood, its here but its not…. Well, baby. All you gotta do is listen… and talking don’t work so good.
