I'm way confused - isn't "Palm" the hardware? Or is it also an OS too?

I'm having trouble understanding, beyond everything in the phone saying that it's "Windows" or "Microsoft" and I suppose everything possibly looking and being layed out differently, what the big difference or deal in the change is?
Palm has historically run the Palm OS on it's handhelds. So, if you bought a Palm device, you'd be running the Palm OS. This new Treo 700 is a Palm device, but it will be the first Palm device to run Windows Mobile 5 (which is a Microsoft product).
